    Answer : Option B

    Explanation :

    Clearly, S.P. of the book = 105% of C.P.

    Let the selling price of this edition (of 12500 books) be Rs. x.

    Then, 15 : 105 = 281250 : x     =>     x = Rs. [105∗28125015] = Rs. 1968750

    Therefore S.P. of one book = Rs. [ 196875012500] = RS. 157.50
