X sells an item to Y at a profit of 28% on his cost and sells the same item to Z at a loss of 25% on his cost. If Y thus sold the item to Z a Tk. 2 less than the item to X, then what is the cost of the item to X?
- A. TK. 200
- B. TK. 200
- C. TK. 200
- D. TK. 200
Answer: Option D
Explanation:
Purchase price of X = x
Selling price of Y =1.28x
Z=0.75 of 1.28x= 0.96x
ATQ,
0.75 of 1.28x=x-2
Or, 0.96x=x-2
So, x=50
