Correct Answer: INR 70


Solution : Given: On selling 38 balls at INR 2,240, there is a loss equal to the cost price of 6 balls.
Loss = Cost price – Selling price
According to the question,
Cost Price of 6 = Cost Price of 38 – Selling Price of 38
⇒ Cost Price of 32 = Selling Price of 38
⇒ Cost Price of 32 = 2240
⇒ Cost Price of 1 ball = INR 70
Hence, the correct answer is INR 70
