      a profit of 20% and the other at a loss of 25%. What is the difference in their cost prices?
      A Rs.25 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      ATQ,

      Let CP of the article sold at profit be x and at loss be y.

      x = 150 / 1.2 = 125

      y = 150 / 0.75 = 200

      Required difference = 200 – 125 = Rs. 75
