(A) Rs. 187.50
(B) Rs. 191.50
(C) Rs. 175
(D) Rs. 180
Correct Answer : A

For the publisher to earn a profit of 25% S.P = 125% of C.P.
Also Transportation Cost = 10% of C.P.
Let the S.P of 5500 books be Rs. x.
Then, 10 : 125 = 82500 : x ⇒ x = Rs.
= Rs. 1031250.⸫ S.P. of one book = Rs.
= Rs. 187.50. (A) 33%
