Question

25 packets of sweets cost ₹725. If each packet contains one less than half a dozen of sweets, then what is the cost of one sweet?

Answer 1

1 packet contains = 1/2×12-1 = 5 sweets

25 packets contain = 5×25 = 125 sweets

cost of 125 sweets = Rs. 725

cost of 1 sweet = Rs. (725/125) = Rs. 5.80

hope my answer helps you!
