Suman sold two items, each for Rs. 2,500. She made a
profit of 25% on the first item and incurred a loss of 16.67% on the second item. Calculate the total cost price of both items.Solution
Cost price of the first item = 2500 X (4/5) = Rs. 2000 Cost price of the second item = 2500 X (6/5) = Rs. 3000 Therefore, required sum = (2000 + 3000) = Rs. 5000
