A shopkeeper sold two articles for Rs. 2500 each. One
article is sold at a profit of 25% while another one is sold at a loss of 20%. What will be the sum of the selling prices of both the articles if the shopkeeper wants a profit of 15% by selling both the articles together?Solution
Cost price of both articles together = 2500/1.25 + 2500/0.8 = 2000 + 3125 = Rs. 5125 So, desired selling price = 1.15 × 5125 = Rs. 5893.75
