Explaination

(i) Given:

Cost of 6 pens = ₹ 69

Cost of 1 pen = ₹ (696)[Less pens, Less cost]\Big( \dfrac{69}{6} \Big) \quad \text{[Less pens, Less cost]}

Cost of 16 pens = ₹ (696×16)[More pens, More cost]\Big( \dfrac{69}{6} \times 16 \Big) \quad \text{[More pens, More cost]}

= ₹ (232×16)\Big( \dfrac{23}{2} \times 16 \Big)

= ₹ 23 x 8 \quad [Dividing 16 and 2 by 2]

= ₹ 184

(ii) Given:

1 dozen = 12 eggs

Cost of 12 eggs = ₹ 54

Cost of 1 egg = ₹ (5412)[Less eggs, Less cost]\Big( \dfrac{54}{12} \Big) \quad \text{[Less eggs, Less cost]}

Cost of 30 eggs = ₹ (5412×30)[More eggs, Less More]\Big( \dfrac{54}{12} \times 30 \Big) \quad \text{[More eggs, Less More]}

= ₹ (542×5)[Dividing 30 and 12 by 6]\Big( \dfrac{54}{2} \times 5 \Big) \quad \text{[Dividing 30 and 12 by 6]}

= ₹ 27 x 5 \quad [Dividing 54 and 2 by 2]

= ₹ 135

(iii) Given:

Wages for 14 days = ₹ 1610

Wages for 1 day = ₹ (161014)[Less days, Less wages]\Big( \dfrac{1610}{14} \Big) \quad \text{[Less days, Less wages]}

Wages for 30 days = ₹ (161014×30)[More days, More wages]\Big( \dfrac{1610}{14} \times 30 \Big) \quad \text{[More days, More wages]}

= ₹ 115 x 30 \quad [Dividing 1610 and 14 by 14]

= ₹ 3450

(iv) Given:

Let us find the total number of cups first

25 boxes x 12 cups = 300 cups

Cost of 300 cups = ₹ 10500

Cost of 1 cup = ₹ 10500300=35[Less cups, Less cost]\dfrac{10500}{300} = ₹ 35 \quad \text{[Less cups, Less cost]}

15 boxes x 20 cups = 300 cups

Cost of 300 cups = ₹ 35 x 300 \quad [More cups, More cost]

= ₹ 10500
