Description : On selling a fan at 8% loss and an iron box at 18% gain, a man gains rs.346.If he sells the fan at 7% gain and the iron box at 15% gain, then he gains rs.450. The actual price of the iron box is approximately?

Last Answer : Let the cost price of the fan be Rs X and Cost of the iron box beRs Y Then 18%Y – 8% X=346 ; That is 18Y-8X=34600 1 And 15%Y+8% X=450 ; that is 15Y+8X=450002 Solving 1 and 2 we get X=1102.275 Y=2412.12 therefore cost of ironbox is = 2412(approx.)
