100 guavas were bought at ₹1210 per hundred and were sold at a profit of ₹965. Find the selling price (in ₹) per dozen of guavas.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3 i.e. 261

Cost price of 100 guavas = ₹1210

Profit = ₹965

Selling price of 100 guavas = 1210 + 965 = ₹2175

Selling price of 1 guava = 2175 ÷ 100 = ₹21.75

Selling price of 1 dozen (12 guavas) = 21.75 × 12 = ₹261

Selling price per dozen = ₹261
