(B) Total cost price $(C.P.)$ of $240$ bananas $= \frac{240}{12} 	imes 48 = 20 	imes 48 = ₹ 960$.To get a profit of $25\%$,the total selling price $(S.P.)$ must be $= 960 	imes (1 + 0.25) = 960 	imes 1.25 = ₹ 1200$.He sells half of the bananas ($120$ bananas) at $₹ 5$ each. Amount received $= 120 	imes 5 = ₹ 600$.Remaining bananas $= 240 - 120 = 120$. Out of these,$\frac{1}{6}$ are rotten,so rotten bananas $= 120 	imes \frac{1}{6} = 20$.Good remaining bananas $= 120 - 20 = 100$.Required $S.P.$ for the remaining $100$ bananas $= 1200 - 600 = ₹ 600$.Price per banana for the remaining stock $= \frac{600}{100} = ₹ 6$ per banana.
