To find,

The cost of refined oil per litre.

Solution,

We can easily solve this problem by following the given steps.

According to the question,

We have:

The price of 15.5 litres of refined oil = Rs. 1122.20

(We know that to find the price of 1 object when the price is given for more than 1 then we divide the total price by the number of objects.)

So,

The price of 1 litre of refined oil = Rs. (1122.20/15.5)
