Answer:

A pay 120 for it

Let the cost price be X

A Sells to B

profit = 20%

= cost price + 20%

= X + 20/100 of X

= 6x/ 5

B sells to C

profit = 25%

= Cost price + + 25%

= cost price + 25%

= 6x/5 + 25/100*6x/5

= 6x/5.+ 3x/10.

= 3x/2

3x/2 = 225.

3x = 450

x = 150.

sp = C. p + profit

S. p - profit = C. p

X - X/5

4x/5

4(150)/5.

120
