    Let cost price of microwave oven = $$Rs. 100x$$ => Cost price of mixer = $$Rs. (36,750 - 100x)$$ Selling price of  mixer (32% profit) = Selling price of microwave oven (22% loss) => $$frac{132}{100} imes (36,750 - 100x) = frac{78}{100} imes 100x$$ => $$48510 - 132x = 78x$$ => $$x = frac{48510}{210} = 231$$ => Cost price of microwave oven = $$100 imes 231 = Rs. 23,100$$ => Cost price of mixer = $$36,750 - 23,100 = Rs. 13,650$$ $$ herefore$$ Mixer is cheaper with cost price = Rs. 13,650
