    Explanation

    Total Cost price of 100 mangoes = (100×12) = 1200 tk. At 10% profit, total Selling price = (1200×110)/100 = 1320 tk. Total Selling Price of 60 mangoes each 17.40 tk = (60×17.40) = 1044 tk. And, total Selling Price of x mangoes each 11.31 tk = 11.31x tk. ATQ, 11.31x = 1320-1044 Or, x = 276/11.31 Or, x = 24.40 So the least possible value of x = 25
