Answer 1

Answer:

1) The fruit vendor charges Rs. 78 for a dozen i.e. 12 mangoes

Thus price of 1 mango = 78/12

Thus price of 40 mangoes = 40 * 78/12

                                           = Rs. 260

Answer 2

Answer:

cost of one dozen of mangoes:- 78

cost of one mango                    :- 78/12

                                                  :- 6.5

cost of 40 mangoes                 :- 6.5* 40

                                                   :- 260
