(A) Let the total cost price $(CP)$ of the fruit be $A$.The seller sells $\frac{3}{5}$ of the fruit at $10 \%$ profit and the remaining $\frac{2}{5}$ of the fruit at $5 \%$ loss.The total profit is given by:$Profit = (\frac{3}{5} 	imes A 	imes \frac{10}{100}) - (\frac{2}{5} 	imes A 	imes \frac{5}{100})$Given that the total profit is $Rs. 1500$,we have:$1500 = \frac{30A}{500} - \frac{10A}{500}$$1500 = \frac{20A}{500}$$1500 = \frac{A}{25}$$A = 1500 	imes 25$$A = 37500$Therefore,the total cost price of the fruit is $Rs. 37,500$.
