Question

Two dozen bananas cost rupees 96.What will be the cost of 4 bananas?

Answer 1

Answer:

the answer is 192 rupees

Answer 2

GIVEN:

Two dozen bananas cost Rupees 96

(Note: 1 dozen = 12, 2 dozen = 12×2 = 24)

I.e, 24 bananas = 96₹

SOLUTION:

24 bananas = 96₹

Now, to find the cost of 4 bananas, we need to first find the cost of 1 banana,

Cost of 1 banana = 96/24

= 4

∴ Cost of a banana is 4₹

So, cost of 4 bananas = 4 × (cost of 1 banana)

= 4 × 4₹

= 16₹

∴ Required cost of four bananas is 16 Rupees
