A.

1025.56

B.

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
