Ques: What is the difference between number of sarees sold from shop A in July and August together and number of sarees sold from shop B in September and October together?

Correct Answer: (a) 240
Solution:

For June:
Total number of sarees sold = 840
Number of sarees sold from shop A = 840 × 4/7 = 480
Then, number of sarees sold from shop B = 840 - 480 = 360
Similarly,

Month

June

360

July

972

972 × 4/9 = 432

972 - 432 = 540

August

824

824 × 3/8 = 309

824 - 309 = 515

September

860

860 × 7/10 = 602

860 - 602 = 258

October

964

964 × 1/4 = 241

964 - 241 = 723

Number of sarees sold from shop A in July and August together = 432 + 309 = 741
And, number of sarees sold from shop B in September and October together = 258 + 723 = 981
Therefore, difference = 981 - 741 = 240

12. 12. What is the respective ratio of number of sarees sold from shop A in June and number of sarees sold from shop B in July?

Correct Answer: (c) 8 : 9
Solution:

Number of sarees sold from shop A in June = 480
And, number of sarees sold from shop B in July = 540
Therefore, ratio = 480 : 540 = 8 : 9

13. If price of each saree sold from shop A is Rs.1200, then find income of shop A on sarees in September.

Correct Answer: (b) Rs.722400
Solution:

Number of sarees sold from shop A in September = 602
Therefore, income of shop A on sarees in September = 1200 × 602 = Rs.722400

14. Number of sarees sold from shop A in August and October together are approximately what percent of number of sarees sold from shop A and B together in June?

Correct Answer: (a) 65%
Solution:Number of sarees sold from shop A in August and October = 309 + 241 = 550
And, number of sarees sold from shop A and B together in June = 840
Therefore, percentage = (550/840) × 100 = 65% (approx.)

15. How many sarees sold from shop B from June to August?

Correct Answer: (d) 1415

Ques: What is the ratio of quantity of mango pickles sold by shopkeeper G and T together to the quantity of mixed veg pickles sold by shopkeeper U and Y together?

Correct Answer: (e) 9:8
Solution:

Shopkeeper G:
Total quantity of pickles sold = 125000 × 18/100 = 22500
Quantity of mango pickles sold = 22500 × 4/9 = 10000
Quantity of mixed veg pickles sold = 22500 - 10000
= 12500

Similarly,

Total (in kg)

Mango pickles (in kg)

Mixed veg pickles (in kg)

Shopkeeper G

12500

15000

Shopkeeper W

20000

7500

12500

Required ratio = (10000 + 12500) : (10000 + 10000) = 9 : 8

17. The quantity of mixed veg pickles sold by shopkeeper W and T together is what percentage more or less than the quantity of mango pickles sold by shopkeeper Y and W together?

Correct Answer: (c) 22.22%
Solution:

The quantity of mixed veg pickles sold by shopkeeper W and T together = 12500 + 15000 = 27500 kg
The quantity of mango pickles sold by shopkeeper Y and W together = 15000 + 7500 = 22500 kg
So, required % = (27500 - 22500)/22500 × 100
= 22.22%

18. What is the difference between the quantity of mango pickles sold by shopkeeper Y and G together and the quantity of mixed veg pickles sold by shopkeeper U and W together?

Correct Answer: (d) 2500 kg
Solution:

Required difference = (15000 + 10000) - (10000 + 12500) = 2500 kg

19. What is the average quantity of mixed pickles sold by shopkeeper W, Y and T together?

Correct Answer: (e) 12500 kg
Solution:Required average = (12500 + 10000 + 15000)/3
= 12500 kg

20. The quantity of mango pickles sold by shopkeeper Y and T together is what percentage of the quantity of mixed veg pickles sold by shopkeeper G and W together?

Correct Answer: (e) 110%
Solution:

The quantity of mango pickles sold by shopkeeper Y and T together = 15000 + 12500 = 27500 kg
The quantity of mixed veg pickles sold by shopkeeper G and W together = 12500 + 12500 = 25000 kg
So, required % = 27500/25000 × 100 = 110%
