Answers
Answer:
8.33kgs
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's assume the price of tea originally was Rs 100 per kg
Price of tea now after increase of 32% = Rs 132
Quantity of tea bought earlier 10 kgs
Amount paid @ 100 per kg = 1000
Now her expenditure after increase of price = 1000 + 10% of 1000 = 1100
Price of tea now is 132 per kg
Quantity bought now is 1100/132 = 8.33 kg
Ans. 8.33 kgs
