Question

If 50 metres of muslin and Rs. 60 cash be given in exchange for 36 metres of silk at Rs. 5 per metre. What is the price of muslin per metre. ​

Answer 1

Answer :

Rs. 24

Step-by-step explanation:

total silk - 36 m

Rupees per metre - 5

so total money - 36 × 5

Rs.180

cash - rs 60

so price of 50m muslin - 180-60 is rs120

per metre is Rs.5

so price of muslin per metre is 120÷5 = 24
