  • The price of commodity X increases by 60 rupees every year, while the price of commodity Y increases by 20 rupees every year. If in 2002, the price of commodity X was Rs. 320 and that of Y was Rs. 740, in which year commodity X will cost 60 rupees more than the commodity Y ?


  • Options
  • A. 2011
  • B. 2014
  • C. 2012
  • D. 2017

  • Correct Answer
  • 2014 

    Explanation

    If After p years , commodity X will cost 60 rupees more than the commodity Y, then

    320 + 60p = 740 + 20p + 60
    => p = 12

    So in year (2002 + 12 = 2014), commodity X will cost Rs.60 more than the commodity Y.
