×x×20=5x

Cost of 1 century egg=90 paise

Cost of (1/8)*x chicken eggs=

×x×90=11.25x

Cost of 1 quail egg=5 paise

Cost of (5/8)*x chicken eggs=

×x×5=3.125x

The total cost of chicken and century eggs=5x+11.25x

=16.25x

As for the cost of chicken and century eggs=Rs 6.5

So,

16.25x=6.5

x=0.4

Cost of quail eggs=3.125*x

=3.125*0.4

=1.25
