CP of B = CP of A +150
SP of A = 1.10 $$ imes$$ CP of A
SP of B = 0.8 $$ imes$$ CP of B = 0.8 $$ imes$$ (CP of A +150)
SP of A : SP of B = 11: 12
1.10 $$ imes$$ CP of A : 0.8 $$ imes$$ (CP of A +150) = 11:12
13.2 $$ imes$$ CP of A = 8.8 $$ imes$$ (CP of A +150)
13.2 $$ imes$$ CP of A - 8.8 $$ imes$$ CP of A = 1320
4.4 $$ imes$$ CP of A = 1320
CP of A = 1320/4.4 = 300
CP of B = Rs. 450/-
Option A is the correct answer.
