Answer:
1200
Step-by-step explanation:
The value of the central pearl is Rs.1200.
The pearl at one end (from which they increased in value by Rs.100): Rs.400.
The pearl at the other end: Rs.800.
Starting from the central pearl, two A.P.’s are formed and sum of those 2 progressions will be Rs.15000. Moving to one side, we have a = x, d =100 and n=9. While on the other side, we have a = x-50, d = -50 and n=8
