The price of diamond is directly proportional to the square of its weight. If it breaks in the ratio 3 : 4 : 5, and if the diamond breaks equally then, ₹1800 is earned less. Then the real price of diamond is : |
₹129600 ₹400000 ₹600000 ₹500000 |
₹129600 |
1st 2nd 3rd Actual weight 3 : 4 : 5 ⇒ 12 ....... (i) Equal Break 4 : 4 : 4 ⇒ 12 ATQ, Price = (Weight)2 1st 2nd 3rd Total Price 9 : 16 : 25 ⇒ 50 Price (Equal Break) 16 : 16 : 16 ⇒ 48 Here, Loss = 50R - 48R = 2R = 1800 (given), 1R = 900/- Now, Actual Price = 122 = 144R From (i) 144R = 144 × 900 = 129600/- |
