a man bought 12 oranges for 22.8 naira and sells 4 for 10 naira.what is the cost price in the question
The cost price of one orange can be found by dividing the total cost by the number of oranges purchased:
Cost per orange = 22.8 ÷ 12 = 1.9 naira
To find the selling price of one orange, we need to divide the price per 4 oranges by 4:
Selling price per orange = 10 ÷ 4 = 2.5 naira
Therefore, the cost price in the question is 1.9 naira.
