Correct Option: C
Suppose Total bill = Rs. p
∴ 10 × 60 + | + 50 = p | |
11 |
⇒ 600 + 50 + | = p | |
11 |
⇒ p - | = 650 | |
11 |
⇒ | = 650 | |
11 |
⇒ 10p = 650 × 11
⇒ p = 65 × 11 = 715
∴ Amount paid by the eleventh person = | + 50 = Rs. | + 50 | ||||
11 | 11 |
Hence , Amount paid by the eleventh person = Rs. (65 + 50) = Rs. 115
