Among six commodities P, Q, R, S, T and U, the price of Q is 1.5 times that of T. The price of U is four times that of P. The price of S is equal to the price of R. The price of P is 3.5 times that of R. The price of T is twice the price of R. The price of P is Rs. 70. What is the price of Q? Correct Answer Rs. 60

Given that :

Price of P = Rs. 70

Price of U is four times that of P

U = 4P = 4 × 70 = Rs. 280

Price of P is 3.5 times that of R

P = 3.5R

R = P/3.5

R = 70/3.5 = Rs. 20

Price of R = Price of S

Price of T is twice the price of R

T = 2R

T = 2 × 20 = Rs. 40

Price of Q is 1.5 times that of T

Q = 1.5T = 1.5 × 40 = Rs. 60.

Hence, the correct answer is "Rs. 60".
