R sold the table at 20% profit at Rs. 90. Thus cost price would be given by: CPR X 1.2 = 90
R’s Cost price = Rs. 75.
We also know that E sold it to R at 25% profit. Thus,
E’s Cost price X 1.25 = 75
-> E’s cost price = 60.
E sold at table to R at a profit of 25%.R sold the same table to Sfor ...
Given data:
Profit earned by E = 25%
Profit earned by R = 20%
Price at which R sold to S = Rs. 90
Let the cost price of E be x.
E sold to R at a profit of 25%, so the selling price of E is:
Selling price of E = x + 0.25x = 1.25x
R sold to S at a profit of 20%, so the selling price of R is:
Selling price of R = 1.25x + 0.20(1.25x) = 1.50x
R sold to S for Rs. 90, so:
1.50x = 90
x = Rs. 60
Therefore, the price at which E bought the table from Z is Rs. 60.
