Question

5 dozen apples cost Rs.225. How much money will be required to buy 32 apples? If a box can hold 13 apples. Find the number of boxes that can be purchased with Rs.195?

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

1 dozen = 12 apples

5 dozen = ?

12 × 5 = 60 apples

One apple cost will be :

225 / 60

3.75

Now , if 1 apple cost is = 3.75

Then , 32 apples cost is = ?

3.75 × 32 = Rs.120

Now we know , the cost of one apple = 3.75

Then , the cost of 13 Apple = ?

13 × 3.75 = Rs.48.75

Now , in 48.75 ruppes he get = 13 apples

Then , in 195 ruppes he get = ?

13/48.75 × 195

2535/48.75

52 apples.

So , in 195 ruppes he get 52 apples.
