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 Choose the correct choice from the following options:	A) 400 & 300	B) 400 & 500	C) 400 & 200	D) 300 & 200	E) 500 & 200
let cp of horse be x   and cp of cart be y   then   horse sp=90*x/100=9x/10   cart sp=120*y/100=6y/5   now he say thru these no loss no gain mean cp of both equal to sp of both   =&gt; x+y=(9x/10)+(6y/5)-----(1)   again   horse sp=95*x/100=19x/20   cart sp=105*y/100=21y/20   now at this time he suffer loss of 10 rs mean   cp=sp+10   x+y=19x/20+21y/20+10-----(2)   solving eq 1 and 2 u will get the ans x=400 &amp; y=200   ANSWER:400 &amp; 200
