A reduction of 20%, in the rate of sugar enables Sudhir to get 6 kg more sugar for ₹960. What is the reduced rate of sugar per kg?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 3
20% = \(\frac{1}{5}\)
Initial : New
Price 5 : 4
Quantity 4 : 5
{ Price ∝ \(\frac{1}{Quantity}\) }
ATQ,
1R = 6 kg
New quantity bought with reduced price = 5 × 6 = 30 kg
Reduced price of sugar = \(\frac{960}{30}\)
= Rs. 32
