Question

चीनी के भाव में 20% की कमी हो जाने से 240 रु. में 12
किग्रा चीनी अधिक खरीदी जा सकती है तो बताओ चीनी
का पहले का मूल्य क्या था?​

Answer 1

Answer:

The old price of sugar was Rs. 5/kg.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the price of sugar be Rs. X/kg.

Quantity purchased with 240rs at old price= (240/X)kg

ATQ,

Deduction%= 20

New Price= X- X(20%)= 4X/5

Quantity purchased with 240Rs at New price= [240/(4X/5)]= (300/X)kg

Now,

The quantity purchased at old price is lesser than the quantity purchased at new price by 12kg.

So,

(300/X)-(240/X)=12

=> 12X= 60

=> X = 5

Hence, Solved!

Hope, it helps!
