A fruit vendor purchased 20 dozens of bananas at Rs. 15 per dozen. But one-fourth of the bananas were rotten and had to be thrown away. He sold two-third of the remaining bananas at Rs. 22.50 per dozen. At what price per dozen should he sell the remaining bananas to make neither a profit nor a loss?

A. Rs. 20
B. Rs. 15
C. Rs. 22.50
D. Rs. 7.50
E. None of these
Explanation:
CP of 20 dozen of bananas = 15 * 20 = Rs. 300
Number of bananas which are rotten = 1/4 * 20 = 5 dozen.
SP of two-third of remaining bananas = (2/3 * 15) * 22.5 = Rs. 225
SP of remaining 5 dozens of bananas to make no profit and no loss =(300 – 225) = Rs. 75.
SP of 1 dozen bananas = 75/5 = Rs. 15.
