Answer 2

ANSWER:-

Let us consider the problem.

Original price is Rs x per. kg.

New price is Rs 1.12x

since, Dealer gets 27kg. less for Rs. 24750 at new price.

hence,

$\frac{24750}{1.12x} + 27 = \frac{24750}{x}$

$= > 24750 + 30.4x = 24750 \times 1.12$

$= > 30.24 = 27720 - 24750$

$hence,$

$x = \frac{2970}{30.24} = 98.21$

$Therefore, \: new \: price \: is \: rs.98.21 \times 1.12 = rs.110$
