Answer 1

Answer:

Cost of 5 books Rs 720

cost of 5 books from other shop Rs 860

Average price = 720+860/2 = Rs 790.

Answer 2

Answer:

• The average price of the book bought is Rs. 790.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

• Cost of five books = Rs. 720
• Cost of one bookshop and five books from another shop = Rs. 860

To Find :

• Average price of the book bought.

Calculations :

Here, we are provided with cost of five books [Rs. 720] and cost of one bookshop & five books from another shop [Rs. 860]. And we are asked to calculate the average price of the book bought.

Cost of five books,

$\mapsto \sf{Rs. 720}$

Cost of one bookshop and five books from another shop,

$\mapsto \sf{Rs. 860}$

Now, as per the question, we have to calculate the average price of the book.

• Average price = Total amount of money he paid/ 2

$\mapsto \sf \dfrac{Rs. \: 720 + 860}{2}$

• On adding Rs. 750 + Rs. 860

$\mapsto \sf \dfrac{Rs. \: 1580}{2}$

• By performing division

$\mapsto \sf{ \pink{Rs. \: 790}}$

Therefore,

• The average price of book he bought is Rs. 790.
