Answer:
It is given that the S.P is same for both the fans.
Let C.P of the first fan be Rs. x
∴C.P of the second fan =Rs. (3605−x)
Profit on the first fan =15%
Loss on the second fan =9%
For the first fan,
S.P=C.P(
100
100+Gain%
)
=x(
100
115
)
=
20
23x
For the second fan, S.P=C.P(
100
100−Loss%
)
=(3605−x)(
100
91
)
Since S.P of both the fans is the same,
∴
20
23x
=(3605−x)(
100
91
)
⇒2300x=91(72100−20x)
⇒2300x=6561100−1820x
⇒4120x=6561100
⇒x=Rs. 1592.50
Thus, C.P of the first fan is Rs. 1592.50 .
C.P of the second fan =Rs. (3605−1592.50)=Rs. 2012.50
difference between the cost price of first and second fan =2012.50−1592.50=Rs420
