(1 Point)
O Rs.9.36
Rs.10.36
Rs. 11.36
Rs.12.36​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Original price per Egg was X.

Increased Price = X + 30% of X = 1.3X

Now,

(7.80/X ) - (7.80 /1.3X) = 3

On solving, we get,

X = 0.6

Price per egg was Rs. 0.6 .

Present price = 1.3X = 1.3 * 0.6

Present price for 12 eggs = 1.3 * 0.6 * 12 = Rs. 9.36.
