The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to determine the total cost price (CP) that Rajnish has to pay for 30 books and 65 pens based on the given conditions. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Problem**: - Rajnish buys 30 books and 65 pens. - The price of each book is greater than the price of each pen. - We have three conditions (A, B, C) to analyze. 2. **Analyzing Condition A**: - Condition A states that Rajnish sells all the items at a profit of 20% for Rs. 3828. - Let the total cost price (CP) of the books and pens be \( x \). - Selling price (SP) is given by the formula: \[ SP = CP + (Profit \% \times CP) = CP + 0.2 \times CP = 1.2 \times CP \] - From the problem, we know: \[ 1.2x = 3828 \] - Solving for \( x \): \[ x = \frac{3828}{1.2} = 3190 \] 3. **Analyzing Condition B**: - Condition B states that the cost price of one book and one pen together is Rs. 90. - Let the cost price of one book be \( b \) and one pen be \( p \). - We have: \[ b + p = 90 \] - The total cost price for 30 books and 65 pens can be expressed as: \[ CP = 30b + 65p \] - However, we cannot determine the total cost price with this information alone because we have two variables and only one equation. 4. **Analyzing Condition C**: - Condition C states that the difference between the sum and difference of the cost price of one pen and one book is Rs. 28. - This can be expressed as: \[ (b + p) - (b - p) = 28 \] - Simplifying this gives: \[ 2p = 28 \implies p = 14 \] - Substituting \( p \) back into Condition B: \[ b + 14 = 90 \implies b = 76 \] 5. **Calculating Total Cost Price**: - Now we can calculate the total cost price using the values of \( b \) and \( p \): \[ CP = 30b + 65p = 30(76) + 65(14) \] - Calculating each term: \[ CP = 2280 + 910 = 3190 \] ### Conclusion: The total cost price that Rajnish has to pay for 30 books and 65 pens is Rs. 3190.
