Let price of ghee before increment = Rs.x
Consumption = 10 kg
Then, expenditure on ghee = Rs.10x
After increment,
Expenditure on ghee = 110% of 10x = 11x
Price of ghee = 132% of x = x×132100=33x25 per kg
Consumption = 10 kg
Then, expenditure on ghee = Rs.10x
After increment,
Expenditure on ghee = 110% of 10x = 11x
Price of ghee = 132% of x = x×132100=33x25 per kg
