    Solution

    ATQ, Let cost price of Veg burger is Rs. 100a Marked price of Veg burger = 2.4 × 100a = Rs. 240a Selling price of Veg burger = Rs. (100a + 832) Selling price of Non Veg burger = 240a/1.25 = Rs.192a So, 192a + 96 = 100a + 832 Or, 92a = 736 Or, a = 8 Cost price of Non Veg burger = (192 × 8)/0.60 = Rs.2560
