    A woman has a certain number of mangoes of which 13% are rotten. She gives 75% of the remainder in charity and then has 261 left. The number of mangoes were

    A)  1100               

    B)  1000

    C)  1200   

    D)  1250

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    Let the number of mangoes \[=x\] \[\therefore \]      \[\left( x-\frac{13x}{100} \right)\left( 1-\frac{75}{100} \right)=261\] \[\Rightarrow \]   \[\frac{87}{100}x\times \frac{25}{100}=261\] \[\Rightarrow \]   \[x=\frac{261\times 100\times 100}{87\times 25}=1200\]
