Question:

A man purchased 15 goats at Rs 1200 each. 3 of them died how should he sell the remaining goats so as not to lose anything​.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Find how much Rs the man spent to buy 15 goats.

   15 x 1200 = 18000

   The man purchased 15 goats for Rs 18000.

2. Find how many goats were left when 3 goats died.

   15 - 3 = 12

   12 goats were left.

3. Find how much each goat will cost if the man will sell it without loss.

   18000 / 12 = 1500

   Each goat will cost Rs 1500 if the man wants to sell it without loss.

Answer:

The man needed to sell each goat more than Rs 1500 to not lose anything.
