SP is 2300

Explanation:

Cost price (CP) is the price at which an item is purchased. Selling price (SP) is the price at which an item is sold. If selling price(SP)  is more than cost price (CP) it means profit/gain occurs.  If selling price (SP) is less than cost price (CP) it means loss occurs

Formulas

profit percentage  =  (profit  ×  100) /cost price

Loss percentage = (loss ×  100) /cost price

Let  Sushant's cost price be 125a/100 and cost price of Raghuram  be 100a/115.

According to the question, we have

125a/100 - 15a/115 = 275

(575a-300a)/2300 = 275

275a/2300 = 275

a = 2300
