Select the correct option: A) rs . 70 B) rs . 80 C) rs . 90 D) rs . 100 E) none

Rationale: solution : 1 st method : let the original price of tea be rs . x / kg . after reduction the price becomes = x - 10 % of x = 9 x / 10 per kg . now , ( 22500 / ( 9 x / 10 ) ) - 22500 / x = 25 or , 22500 [ 10 / 9 x - 1 / x ] = 25 or , 25 * 9 x = 22500 ; or , x = ( 22500 / 2589 ) = rs . 100 . hence , new price = 90 per kg . thought process method : let the original price be rs . 100 per kg , he get tea = 22500 / 100 = 225 kg . after reduction the price becomes = 90 per kg , he get tea = 22500 / 90 = 250 kg . so , reduction price is rs . 90 per kg as it enables him to buy 25 kg of more tea . answer : option c
