      E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      CP of item for first vendor = 900/(100 + 20)% = Rs.750 CP of item for second vendor = 900 × (100 - 20)% = Rs.720 Profit earned by the first vendor = 900 – 750 = Rs.150 Profit earned by the second vendor = 900 – 720 = Rs.180 Required difference = Rs. (180 – 150) = Rs.30
