Question

After getting 10% discount a school purchased 85 desks for Rs. 22,720. What is the original cost of a single desk ?

​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of each chair=Rs 1065

therefore cost of 50 chairs=Rs(106*50)=Rs 53250

Cost of each blackboard=Rs 1645

therefore,30 blackboards=Rs(1645*30)=Rs 49350

therefore total bill= Rs(53250+49350)=Rs 102600

Answer 2

294

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1 : we will find 10% of 22720

$\frac{10}{100} \times 22720 = 2272$

step 2 : We will find the orginal cost of 85 desks = 22720+2272=24,992

step 3: We wil find the original cost of 1 desk =24,992÷85

Answer = 294
