      Question

      Two items, ‘D’ and ‘E’, were each sold for Rs.

      4500. Item ‘D’ was sold at a 20% loss, while Item ‘E’ was sold at a 25% profit. If the average cost price of Items ‘D’, ‘E’, and ‘F’ is Rs. 4200, determine the cost price of Item ‘F’.
      A Rs. 3375 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B Rs. 3665 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C Rs. 2565 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D Rs. 1665 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      ATQ;
      Cost price of article ‘D’ = 4500 / 0.80 = Rs. 5625

      Cost price of article ‘E’ = 4500 / 1.25 = Rs. 3600

      Therefore, cost price of article ‘F’ = (4200 × 3) – 5625 – 3600 = Rs. 3375
