    A)  1300              

    B)  1250

    C)  1200               

    D)  610

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

     Let the woman had total x mangoes. 13% mangoes were bad, then 87% were good. again 75% of remaining for charity, then she had left 25% mangoes. \[\therefore \] By question, 25% of (87% of x)= 261 \[\Rightarrow \] \[x\times \frac{87}{100}\times \frac{25}{100}=261\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[x\times \frac{261\times 100\times 100}{87\times 25}=1200\]
