      Question

      If the average cost price of 10 identical watches

      decreases by Rs. 10 after replacing one watch with a new watch that costs Rs. 150, what was the original cost price of the replaced watch?
      A Rs.170 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B Rs.225 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C Rs.250 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D Rs.192 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      ATQ;

      Let the cost price of each watch be Rs. 'x'.

      So, cost price of 10 watches = Rs. 10x

      ATQ:

      (10x - x + 150) รท 10 = x - 10

      Or, 9x + 150 = 10x - 100

      Or, x = 250

      So, the cost price of the watch that was removed is Rs. 250.
