    Question

    400 guavas were bought at Rs. 1230 per hundred and were sold at a profit of Rs. 880. Find the selling price (in Rs. ) per dozen of guavas.

    A.

    164

    B.

    184

    C.

    174

    D.

    189

    Correct option is C

    Given:

    Number of guavas = 400

    Cost price = ₹1230 per 100 guavas

    Profit = ₹880

    We are to find the selling price per dozen (12 guavas).

    Formula Used:

    Selling Price = Cost Price + Profit

    Solution:

    Total CP = 4 × ₹1230 = ₹4920

    Total SP = ₹4920 + ₹880 = ₹5800

    SP per guava = 5800400\frac{5800}{ 400}​ = ₹14.5

    SP per dozen = ₹14.5 × 12 = ₹174
