Detailed Solution

Given, a man bought a number of clips at 3 for a rupee and an equal number at 2 for a rupee.
Let us assume that he bought 1 dozen clips of each kind.
C.P of 2 dozen = 13×12+12×12=Rs 10 S.P of 2 dozen = 120% of 10
S.P of 2 dozen = Rs 120100×10
S.P of 2 dozen = Rs. 12 Hence S.P per dozen = Rs. 6.
So, option 3 is correct.
