Rakesh and Rajesh together bought 10 balls and 10 rackets. Rakesh spent 1300 and Rajesh spent 1500. If each racket costs three times a ball does, then what is the price of a racket?

Options

  1. a.

    Rs. 70

  2. b.

    Rs. 90

  3. c.

    Rs. 210

    Correct answer
  4. d.

    Rs. 240

Explanation

Answer is (c). Let the cost of each ball is Rs. X. Then cost of each racket will be 3X. Cost of 10 balls = 10X, and cost of 10 rackets = 30X. So total cost = 10X + 30X = 40X. By the condition given in question, we have 40X = 1300 + 1500 or 40X = 2800 or X = 70. Price of each racket = Rs. 210.
