On selling 26 balls for Rs. 1,350, there is a loss equal to the cost price of eight balls. The cost price of a ball is:1. Rs. 602. Rs. 653. Rs. 754. Rs. 70

Answer» Correct Answer - Option 3 : Rs. 75

Given:

Selling Price = Rs. 1350

Calculation:

Let the cost price of one ball be x

Now selling 26 balls for Rs. 1,350, there is a loss equal to the cost price of eight balls

Cost price of 26 balls = 26x, loss = 8x(8 balls)

Loss = Cost Price – Selling Price

⇒ 8x = 26x – 1350

⇒ 18x = 1350

⇒ x = 75 

∴ The cost price of a ball is Rs.75
