The difference between the selling price of some apples, if sold for ₹15 per apple instead of ₹11 per apple, is ₹800. If the cost price of all the apples is ₹1,800, find the selling price of 10 apples if the profit earned is 10%.
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct answer is Option 2 i.e. ₹99.
Let the number of apples = x
⇒ 15x – 11x = 800
⇒ 4x = 800
⇒ x = 200
CP of 1 apple = = 9
SP at 10% profit = 9 + 0.9 = 9.9
SP of 10 apples = 10 × 9.9 = ₹99
