Question

Mohan bought 52 books for Rs 1130 per book from one shop and 44 books for Rs 920 per book fromanother. What is the average price (in Rs) he paid per book ?

A.

1033.75

B.

1023.75

C.

1043.75

D.

1048.75

Correct option is A

Given:

Mohan bought 52 books at Rs 1130 each

Mohan bought 44 books at Rs 920 each

Formula Used:

Average price per book = Total CostTotal Number of Books\frac{\text{Total Cost}}{\text{Total Number of Books}}​​

Solution:

Total cost from the first shop = 52×113052 \times 1130​ = 58760

Total cost from the second shop = 44×92044 \times 920​ = 40480

Total cost = 58760 + 40480 = 99240

Total number of books = 52 + 44 = 96

Average price per book =9924096 \frac{99240}{96}​ = 1033.75
