SSC MTS 5th July 2022 Shift-3
Explanation:
- Rohit bought 12 kg of oranges for a total of Rs 480.
- Therefore, the cost per kg of oranges is Rs 480 ÷ 12 = Rs 40.
- Rohit purchased 18 kg of guavas at Rs 30 per kg.
- Therefore, the total cost of guavas is 18 kg × Rs 30 = Rs 540.
- The combined total cost of oranges and guavas is Rs 480 (oranges) + Rs 540 (guavas) = Rs 1020.
- The total weight of fruits purchased is 12 kg (oranges) + 18 kg (guavas) = 30 kg.
- Hence, the average cost per kg of the fruits is Rs 1020 ÷ 30 kg = Rs 34.
- Correct Answer: Option 2: Rs 34.00
