ââââââââââââââ
ââââââââââââââ
The largest cost of sending one unit from any refinery to district is:
Answer & solution
- A
Rs. 2172.60
Rs. 2193.0
- C
Rs. 2091.0
- D
None of the above
The highest cost of transportation from a refinery to the depot = Rs. 1,157.70 (BE to AE)
Cost of transportation from AE to AAF takes up the highest charge of Rs. 1,035.30
∴ The maximum cost = 1157.7 + 1035.3 = Rs. 2,193
Hence, option (b).
