B. Rs. 29.22
C. Rs. 33.11
D. Rs. 32.22
Answer: Option A
Solution(By Examveda Team)
Money spent originally = Rs. 140 Less Money to be spent now = 10% of 140 = Rs. 14 Rs. 14 now yield 500 gm sugar So, Present rate of sugar = Rs. 28 per kg. If the present value is Rs. 90, the original value = Rs. 100 If the present value is Rs. 28 the original value $$ = {\text{Rs}}{\text{. }}\frac{{100}}{{90}} \times 28 = {\text{Rs}}{\text{. }}31.11$$Join The Discussion
