A man purchases two clocks A and B at a total cost of Tk 650. He sells A with a 20% profit and B at a loss of 25% and gets the same selling price for both clocks. What are the purchasing prices of A and B respectively?
Purchasing Price (A) + Purchasing Price (B) = 650 TK
So, A + B = 650
In case of,
20% profit , Selling Price of A = =
25% loss. Selling Price of B = =
As, Both A & B gets the same Selling Price So,
=
24A = 15B
24(650 B) = 15B
24 650 24B =15B
39B = 24 650
B =
B =
B=
B = 400 TK
So, A = 650 400 = 250 TK
