Detailed Solution:

 

Aman

Baman

Daman

Number of notebook

1

10

25

Amount

14

130

300

Profit%

a percent

 

b percent

For Aman,

SP of 1 book = 14Rs.

CP of 1 book = 100(100+x)*14

For Baman,

SP of 1 book = 12Rs.

CP of 1 book = 100(100+y)*12

Price of all notebooks is same, therefore.

100(100+x)*14 = 100*12100+y

100 + 7y = 6a

100 = 12y – 7y; [x=2y]

5y = 100

y = 20

a = 40

CP each notebook = 100*12100+20 = 10Rs.

In his sales with Daman, he sold 10 books to her for Rs. 130

CP of 10books = Rs. 100
