Question

$936$ apples were plucked from an orchard in day. They were packed into $12$ boxes and sent to the market for sale. When the apples reached the market, each apple was sold for Rs. $14$. Number of apples contained in each box are $78$. How much would each box be sold for?

Answer 1

Total number of apples plucked in a day $=936$

Number of boxes into which apples are packed $=12$

So, number of apples contained in each box $=936÷12=78$

Now,

Cost of each apple $=$ Rs. $14$

Number of apples a box contained $=78$

Amount gained by selling a box containing apples $=$Rs. $14\times 78=$ Rs. $1092$.
