A dealer of stationery items buys two types of pens, named Rajat Pen and Naveen Pen. The cost of 4 Rajat Pens and 6 Naveen Pens together is ₹540. The cost of one Naveen Pen is ₹15 more than the cost of one Rajat Pen. What is the cost of one Rajat Pen?

The correct answer is

₹45

Let the cost of one Rajat Pen be \(R\) and one Naveen Pen be \(N\).

The total cost condition gives \(4R + 6N = 540\), and the price relation gives \(N = R + 15\).

Substitute the second into the first: \(4R + 6(R + 15) = 540\).

Expand and combine: \(4R + 6R + 90 = 540 \Rightarrow 10R + 90 = 540\).

Solve for \(R\): \(10R = 450 \Rightarrow R = 45\).

Hence, the cost of one Rajat Pen is ₹45.
