sonia sold a table and a chair for Rs 1050 thereby making a profit of 10% on the table and 25% on the chair. If she had taken a profit of 25% on the table and 10% on the chair she would have got Rs 1065 . Find the cost of each
Let the cost of chair be Rs. x and
cost of table be Rs. y
Therefore, acc. to the question,
10% of y +25% of x = 1050
and
10& of x+ 25% of y = 1065
now, on solving (i) & (ii) , we get,
put in (i), we get,
thus, the cost of chair =
and cost of table =
