Answer 2

₹2.25

Explanation:

Selling price of 1 mango = ₹3.36

Mangoes in good state = 500 - 125 = 375

Selling price of 375 mangoes = 3.36 *375 = ₹ 1260

Cost price =
`(100)/(100+profit)*SP`

`= (100)/(100+12)*1260\\\\=(100)/(112)*1260\\\\= 1125`

Cost price of 500 mangoes = ₹ 1125

CP of 1 mango = 1125/500 = ₹2.25
