A. Rs.250
B. Rs.350
C. Rs.450
D. Rs.150

Answer 1

Hint: To find out the cost of one bat, divide the total cost of all the bats by the total number of bats which are present.

Complete step-by-step answer:
Given the cost of 12 cricket bats=Rs.3,000
Cost of one cricket bat=$\dfrac{{Total{\text{ cost of all the bats}}}}{{Total{\text{ no of bats}}}}$ =$\dfrac{{3,000}}{{12}} = 250$
Therefore, the cost of one cricket bat=Rs.250
So, option A is the correct answer for the question

Note: Whenever total cost of certain entities are given, to find out the cost of one entity, divide the total cost by the total number of entities given.
