Krishnendu Dutta  (10 years ago)

let price of an orange is x.
if he can reduce the price by rs 2 he can buy 30 oranges...so 30(x-2)=total money now .
Similarly, if the price is not reduce then he can buy 20 oranges....so total money he have 20 * X.
So,30(x-2)=20x
or,30x-60=20x
or,30x-20x=60
so,x=6.
So tatal money he have 6 *20 = 120 (20*x)
