Answer: Heater -Rs 2400; Fan- Rs 1600

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Ajay bought a fan and a heater for Rs 4000

Suppose the price of fan is x and that of heater is 4000-x

Profit on the fan is 0.25x

Loss on heater is 0.05\times (4000-x)

Total profit is 7% i.e. 0.07\times 4000

\therefore 0.07\times 4000=0.25x-0.05(4000-x)\\\Rightarrow 280=0.25x-200+0.05x\\\Rightarrow 480=0.3x\\\Rightarrow x=1600

Thus, the price of heater is 4000-1600=Rs.\ 2400

Price of fan is Rs.\ 1600

Price of heater is Rs.\ 2400
