Answer 2

Answer:

B. 12,11

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that Mrs. Kapoor is able to get the price of a dozen bananas (12 bananas) reduced by 1 rupee.

It is also given that she gets 1 banana extra for every rupee saved.

Hence, 1 banana is worth 1 rupee.

Therefore, the initial price of the dozen bananas is 12(1) = 12 Rs.

The final price of the dozen bananas = 12(1) - 1 = 11 Rs.

The answer is B. 12,11
