cost price of two articles is same.first article sold at profit of 25%. And second sold at rs. 504 more than ist article.overall profit was 32% find the cp of the articles

• Rs. 3600
  
  If cost price of an article=x, then
  1.25x+(1.25x+504)=1.32*2x
  2.5x+504=2.64x
  x=504/0.14=3600

• Let. cp=x
  Sp of 1st article=125% of x
  Sp of 2nd article=125% of x + 504
  125% of x +125%of x +504 = 132% of 2x
  by solving we can find CP
