Solution :-
Let the total number of mangoes be 'x'
As 1 out of every 30 mangoes in the carat is bruised
Then,
Number of bruised mangoes = 1x/30
And,
3 out of every 4 bruised mangoes are considerably unsaleable and there are 12 unsaleable mangoes in the carat.
Total number of unsaleable mangoes in the carat = 3/4*1x/30
= 1x/40
1x/40 = 12
x = 480
Hence, total number of mangoes in the carat is 480
Option (b) is correct.
