Jones basker  (11 years ago)

Rs.36 for 5 mango
therefore for 15 mango cost Rs.108
he sold Rs.45 for 4 mango
therefore for 12 mango cost = 45*3 = 135
for 1 mango cost = 45/4 = 11.25
for 3 mango cost = 11.25 * 3 = 33.75
for 15 mango = (12 mango + 3 mango) = 135 + 33.75 = 168.75
therefore he earn the money of ( 168.75 - 108 ) = Rs. 60.75
