0. A person buys 3 items of Rs. 1500 each and 2 items of Rs. 1800 each from a shopping mall. On the total bill a discount of 10% is given. What is the average cost of the items?

  • Option : B
  • Explanation :
    Total cost of 3 items at the rate of ₹1500 each
    = 3 x 1500 = ₹4500
    Total cost of 2 items at the rate of ₹1800 each
    = 2 x 1800 = ₹3600
    Total cost of 5 items = 4500 + 3600 = ₹8100
    Discount = 10%
    Net cost = 8100 x (100-10)/100 = ₹7290
    Average cost of the item = 7290/5 = ₹1458
