Answer 1

Answer:

Rs 2783/bag

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to find the CP of the bag first.

50 bags @2500 Rs/bag = Rs 50*2500 = Rs 125000

For transporation he spent = 1500 Rs.

Thus total CP = 125000 + 1500 = Rs 126500

If he has to make 10% profit on SP.

SP = 126500 * 110/100 = Rs 139150 (50 bags)

For I bag SP would be  = 139150/50 = Rs 2783
