  • Question
  • 11 friends went to a hotel and decided to pay the bill amount equally, But 10 of them could pay ? 60 each, as a result 11th has to pay ? 50 extra than his share . Find the amount paid by him?


  • Options
  • A. ?105
  • B. ?110
  • C. ?115
  • D. ?120

  • Correct Answer
  • ?115 

    Explanation

    Let total bill would be ? P
    Each one will to pay = ? P/11
    10 friends could pay 10 x 60 = ? 600
    According to question
    600 + P/11 + 50 = P
    ? 650 = P - P/11
    ? 650 = (11P - P)/11
    ? 650 x 11 = (11P - P)
    ? 650 x 11 = 10P
    ? P = 11 x 65
    ? P = 715
    Amount paid by 11th friend = 715/11 + 50 = ? 115
