    C.

    1015.56

    D.

    1035.56

    Correct option is A

    Given:

    Rupesh bought 52 books at ₹1130 per book.

    Rupesh bought 47 books at ₹910 per book.

    Formula Used:

    Average price = Total costTotal number of books \frac{\text{Total cost}}{\text{Total number of books}}​​

    Solution:

    Total cost for 52 books at ₹1130 per book:

    Total cost for 52 books = 52 × 1130 = 58760

    Total cost for 47 books at ₹910 per book:

    Total cost for 47 books = 47 × 910 = 42770

    Total cost for all books:

    Total cost = 58760 + 42770 = 101530

    Total number of books:

    Total number of books = 52 + 47 = 99

    Average price = 10153099\frac{101530}{99}​ = ₹1025.56
