Let the amount payed by P for it be €x
Qcp = € 1.1 x
Rcp = € 1.25•1.1 x = € 1.375 x
x = € [ 250/1.375 ] = 181.818181......
Hence P paid € 181.818181......

C.P. of article = ×
S.P. for Q = ×(100+10)/100
S.P. for R = 110×/100(100+25)/100
=110×/100X125/100 =250
=1375×/1000=250
=1375×=250000
=×=250000/1375
=×=181.82ruppes
