• A. Rs. 25
• B. Rs. 30
• C. Rs. 35

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

- Step 1: Total profit = Rs. 350 (from Q29).
- Step 2: Total items = 10. Average profit = $350 \div 10 = 35$.
- Step 3: Verify: A's profit = Rs. 20, B's = Rs. 50. For 5 A, 5 B: $(5 \times 20 + 5 \times 50) \div 10 = 350 \div 10 = 35$.
- Step 4: Check options: Option (3) is Rs. 35, which matches.
- Step 5: Ensure correct profit and item count.
- Step 6: Option (3) is correct.
