Profit percentage on saree type A = 12% (found in previous question). 

Profit percentage on saree type E = 20% (found in previous question).

Selling price of saree type A = (500*112)/100 = Rs 560 

Selling price of saree type E = (600*120)/100 = Rs 720

Hence, difference between the selling price of Murshidabad-silk saree type A and saree type E = 720 – 560 = Rs 160

Hence A < B
