If the price of an aricle is reduced by x% and buyer get z kg more for some Rs y the new price per kg of article = xy/(100 × z)
So, x = 18%, y = 4500, & z = 16.2 kg
∴ New price per kg = xy/(100 × z) = (18 × 4500)/(100 × 16.2) = 50
So, x = 18%, y = 4500, & z = 16.2 kg
∴ New price per kg = xy/(100 × z) = (18 × 4500)/(100 × 16.2) = 50
