1250, Rs

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Reetu paid for the watch x Rs. Then Reetu sold the watch to Reshmi having 20% profit = > the selling price is 1.2*x

Then Teshmi sold the wathes with 10% loss (or 0.9 from purchase price 1.2x) to Nikita, i. e. selling price is

1.2*x*0.9=1350

1.08*x=1350

x=1350:1.08

x=1250, Rs
