A foreign exchange rate is the price of the domestic currency stated in terms of another currency.

Let the C.P of one item is Rs. P
and that of other is Rs. (7500 - P)

According to the data given
C.P = S.P
=> Px(116/100) + (7500-P)x(86/100) = 7500
=> 30P = 105000
=> P = 3500

Required difference between selling prices
= Rs. [(3500/100) x 116] - [(4000/100) x 86]
= 4060-3440
= Rs. 620

From the given data,

12 children 16 days work,
One child’s one day work = 1/192.

8 adults 12 days work,
One adult’s one day’s work = 1/96.

Work done in 3 days = ((1/96) x 16 x 3) = 1/2

Remaining work = 1 – 1/2 = 1/2

(6 adults+ 4 children)’s 1 day’s work = 6/96 + 4/192 = 1/12

1/12 work is done by them in 1 day.

1/2 work is done by them in 12 x (1/2) = 6 days.
