A reduction of 10% in the price of cloth enables a man to buy 6 meters of cloth more for Rs. 2160. Find the reduced price and also the original price of cloth per meter.

Answer: Option A

Money spent originally = Rs. 2160
Less money to be spent for now for the same length of cloth,
= 10% of 2160 = Rs. 216
It means Rs. 216 enables a man to buy 6 meters of cloth
So, reduced price = $$\frac{216}{6}$$ = Rs. 36 per meter
And the original price = $$\frac{100\times 36}{90}$$   = Rs. 40 per meter
