Question

Mr Chan bought 20 computers and 25 printers for $30 000. Each computer costs $1250. At a promotion sale, Mr Chan sold each computer at $1700 with a free printer. The selling price of each printer when sold separately was $250.
Find the cost price of each printer.​

Answer 1

Answer:

$200.

Step-by-step explanation:

Each computer costed $1,250.

Mr. Chan bought 20 computers.

20 × $1,250 = $25,000

$25,000 out of the $30,000 was spent on computers. That leaves $5,000. Which means $5,000 was spent on the printers.

$5,000 ÷ 25 = $200

(25 = amount of printers.)

So each printer was $200.
