Recently I bought some guavas at New Market for Rs.
1.20. But they were so small that I made the vendor thrown in two extra guavas
for the same price.
As I began to walk away the vendor mumbled that this
transaction had made him lose 10 paise a dozen less than the price settle
before.
How many guavas did I get for my Rs. 1.20?
Answer: First I
was offered 16 guavas for Rs. 1.20. That would have been at the rate of 90
paise a dozen. The two extra guavas gave me18 for Rs. 1.20, which is at the
rate of eighty paise a dozen, which amounts to en paise a dozen less than the
original price settled.
