Answer 1

Answer:

Rs. 63.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Original Price = Rs. 55

Increased Percent = 15 %

⇒ New Cost Price = Original + ( Increased Percent × Original )

⇒ New Cost Price = 55 + 15% of 55

⇒ New Cost Price = Rs. 55 + ( 0.15 × 55 )

⇒ New Cost Price = Rs. 55 + Rs. 8.25

⇒ New Cost Price = Rs. 63.25

Hence this is the new price of diesel per liter.
