Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
18 pens wer purchased at Rs.1Rs.16/dz
1 dz = 12 pcs of pen
12 pen price will be = Rs 16 ( Acc to Q)
Cost of 1 Pen = Rs.16/12pen = 4/3
Cost of 18 pens = 18*4/3 = Rs.24

Now, there is a loss of 25/4% on Rs.24
Then the value will come
=25/4*100 * 24
= Rs.1.5 Loss

Then
=Rs.24 - Rs.125 = Rs.22.5 ( in this price he sold 18 pen)
But we have to fine price of 1 dozen ( 12 Pens)
Cost of 1 pen = Rs.22.5/18Pens = Rs.1.25
Cost of 12 Pens (1 dz) = Rs.1.25*12 = Rs.15

Now the final answer is
Rs.15/dz
