Let CP of camera 1 be X Let CP of camera 2 be Y Camera 1 sold at 12% loss Camera 2 sold at 15% profit 88% of X = 115% of Y, or 0.88X = 1.15Y....(1) And, X + Y = 406, or X = 406 - Y....(2) Putting (2) in (1) 0.88(406 - Y) = 1.15Y 357.28 - 0.88Y = 1.15Y 357.28 = 2.03Y Y = 357.28 / 2.03 Y = 176 X = 406 - 176 = 230
