  • Question
  • 20 men went to a restaurant. Ninteen of them paid Rs.70 each and the twentieth man paid Rs.90.25 more than the average of all the 20 men. What is the total bill ?


  • Options
  • A. Rs. 1495
  • B. Rs. 548
  • C. Rs. 850
  • D. Rs. 1750

  • Correct Answer
  • Rs. 1495 

    Explanation

    Let the average bill paid by twenty members = 'x'

    But 19 men paid each = Rs. 70

    20th man paid Rs. 90.25 more than the avg bill of 20 = x + 90.25

    20x = 19(70) + x + 90.25
    19x = 1330 + 90.25
    19x = 1420.25
    x = 1420.25/19 = Rs. 74.75

    But the total bill = 20 x 74.75 = Rs. 1495.
