A man bought a horse and a cart. If he sold the horse at 10% loss and the cart at 20% gain, he would not lose anything; but if he sold the horse at 5% loss and the cart at 5% gain, he would lose Rs.10 in the bargain. The amount paid by him was Rs._____ for the horse and Rs._____ for the cart.
A
200, 400
B
250, 450
C
300, 500
D
400, 200
Correct Option - D
Explaination
Let the cost of the horse and the cart be Rs.h and Rs.c
0.9h+1.2c=h+c
0.1h=0.2c
h=2c
0.95h+1.05c=h+c-10
0.05h-10=0.05c
0.1c-10=0.05c
0.05c=10
c=200
h=400
