Question

Mark the correct alternative in the following question:

If the cost of 15 mangoes is ₹180, then what is the cost of 25 mangoes?

(a) ₹220 (b) ₹360 (c) ₹200 (d) ₹300

Answer 1

As, the cost of 15 mangoes = ₹180

⇒ The cost of 1 mango = $\frac{180}{15}$ = ₹12

So, the cost of 25 mangoes = 25 × 12 = ₹300

Hence, the correct alternative is option (d).
