- The seller sells 65 meters of cloth for Rs 5,850.

- Profit is Rs 11 per meter, which means the profit on 65 meters is 65 * Rs 11 = Rs 715.

- Selling price of 65 meters = Cost price + Total Profit.

- So, Cost price of 65 meters = Rs 5,850 - Rs 715 = Rs 5,135.

- Cost price per meter = Rs 5,135 / 65 = Rs 79.

Therefore, the correct cost price of 1 meter of cloth is option: 4 - Rs 79.
