  1. Ram bought 4 dozen apples at Rs. 12 per dozen and 2 dozen apples at Rs. 16 per dozen. He sold all of them to earn 20%. At what price per dozen did he sell the apples ?
    1. Rs. 14.40
    2. Rs. 16.00
    3. Rs. 16.80
    4. Rs. 19.20
Correct Option: B

C.P. of dozen apples = Rs. (12 x 4 + 16 x 2) = Rs. 80
Gain = 20%
∴ S.P. = Rs. (120/100) x 80 = Rs. 96
S.P. per dozen = Rs. (96/6) = Rs. 16
