Step-by-step explanation:

Let cp of each cycle be X

and cp of 2cycles be 2x

Let Sp of cycle 1 be x+20% profit of x

and sp of cycle 2 be x-20% loss of x

its Mentioned

cost price and selling price are same

Well

2x = 1500

x= 1500/2

x = 750 each cost price

Selling price of cycle 1 = x + 20% of x

750 + (20/100 × 750)

= 750 + 150

= 900 Answer

Selling price of cycle2 = x - 20% of x

= 750 - (20/100 × 750)

= 750- 150

= 600 Answer

Selling price of both = 600 + 900 = 1500

Well

Selling price = Cost price

are same as mentioned

❤All the best❤

Answer 2

Answer:

1st bicycle=900

2nd bicycle=600

Step-by-step explanation:

Concept

• Cost price is the amount we pay to buy an item at which it is available
• Selling Price is the rate at which an article is sold which we abbreviate as SP.

Given

Combined cp of both cycle=1500

1st cycle loss=20%

2nd cycle profit=20%

Find

CP of both cycle

Solution

If the C.P. of cycle sold at loss, be Rs. x .

then

$\Rightarrow\left|\frac{x \times 80}{100}=(1500-x) \times \frac{120}{100}\right|$

$\Rightarrow\left|\frac{4 x}{5}=(1500-x) \times \frac{6}{5}\right|$

$\Rightarrow|4 x=9000-6 x|$

$\Rightarrow|10 x=9000|$

$\Rightarrow \mid x=\text { Rs. } 900$

$\therefore \text { C.P. of second cycle }=1500-900=\mid \text { Rs. } 600$
