    4500. Item β€˜D’ was sold at a 20% loss, while Item β€˜E’ was sold at a 25% profit. If the average cost price of Items β€˜D’, β€˜E’, and β€˜F’ is Rs. 4200, determine the cost price of Item β€˜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 β€˜D’ = 4500 / 0.80 = Rs. 5625

    Cost price of article β€˜E’ = 4500 / 1.25 = Rs. 3600
