Question

A man spends three-fourth of the money on buying apples. Apples costs ₹ 50 per kg. If he has bought 3 kg apples, how money does he had?

• A. ₹ 50
• B. ₹ 50
• C. ₹ 100
• D. ₹ 200

Answer 1

The correct option is D ₹ 200

Cost of 1 kg apples = ₹ 50
Total cost of 3 kg apples = 3 $\times$ ₹ 50
= ₹ 150

Money spent on buying apples
= $\frac{3}{4}$ of total money

= 3 quarters of total money


3 quarter of total money= ₹ 150
1 quarters of total money = ₹ 50

So the money he had = 4 $\times$ ₹ 50
= ₹ 200
