Due to a 25% reduction in the price of oranges, a customer can purchase 4 more oranges for Rs. 16. What was the original price of an orange?
Correct Option:
B
Explanation
Let the original price per orange be ₹x. After a 25% reduction, the price becomes 0.75x. From 16/(0.75x) − 16/x = 4, we get x = 4/3 ≈ ₹1.33.
