Veena's monthly income is equal to the cost of 34 kg of nuts. Cost of 10 kg of nuts is equal to the cost of 20 kg of apples. If the cost of 12 kg of apples is Rs 1500, what is Veena's annual salary?(In some places, annual income and in some places, monthly income are given)

• A. Rs 1 lakh 20 thousand
• B. Rs 1 lakh 2 thousand
• C. Rs 2 lakh 20 thousand
• D. Cannot be determined
• E. None of the above

Answer 1

The correct option is B Rs 1 lakh 2 thousand

$\because$ 12kg of apples = Rs 1500
$\therefore$ 20 kg of apples $=\frac{1500}{12}\times 20$
= Rs 2500
$\because$ 10 kg of nuts = Rs 2500
$\therefore$ 34 kg of nuts $=\frac{2500}{10}\times 34$
= Rs 8500
$\therefore$ Veena's monthly income = Rs 8500
$=12\times 8500$
= Rs 1 lakh 2 thousand
