Let the number of bananas be N.

We know that 1 dozen signifies 12 entities.

So, the number of bananas in 16 dozen = 16× 12= 192 

Cost of 192 bananas = 360

Therefore, the cost of 1 banana=360192

Number of Bananas in Rs.60,  N =60Cost of 1 banana

=60360/192

= 60360×192 

= 603606×192 

=1926 

=6×326 

= 32

N = 32 

Hence 32 bananas can be bought in Rs.60.
