ANSWER:

Rs - 90

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost Price of first horse sold for Rs 1955 and making a PROFIT of 15% =(1955×100)/115= Rs 1700

Cost Price of second horse sold for Rs 1955, INCURRING a loss of 15% = (1955× 100)/85 = Rs 2300.

Total cost Price of the two horses = Rs 1700 + Rs 2300 = Rs 4,000/

Total sale price of the two horses = Rs 1955 × 2 = Rs 3910
