  • Question
  • Courier charges for packages to a certain destination are 65 cents for the first 250 grams and 10 cents for each additional 100 grams or part thereof. What could be the weight in grams of a package for which the charge is $1.55 ?


  • Options
  • A. 1155
  • B. 1145
  • C. 1040
  • D. None

  • Correct Answer
  • 1145 

    Explanation

    The weight will be 250g plus (1.55 - 0.65)/0.10 units of 100g

    250 + 900 = 1150

    This is the maximum weight that can be sent at that price. But, weights exceeding

    250 + 800 will also get charged this amount (that is what the ?part thereof? implies).

    Hence a package weighing 1145 will be charged $1145
