Option 3 : Only B

Suppose CP of a notebook is Rs. P and thus CP of a pen will be Rs. 2P.

Since the ratio of the selling price of pen and notebook is 2 : 3;

Suppose SP of a notebook is Rs. 3k and thus SP of a pen will be Rs. 2k

∴ Profit percentage on selling X notebooks = × 100

Loss percentage on selling X Pens = × 100

∴ × 100 = × 100

⇒ 4Yk = 3Yk + 3k

⇒ Y = 3

Value of X and the CP’s can’t be determined.
