A) Rs. 38000/- B) Rs. 39500/-
C) Rs. 40000/- D) Rs. 41250/-
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) Rs. 40000/-

Explanation:

Annual salary of Arun = 7,68,000 Rs.
Monthly salary = 7,68,000/12 = Rs. 64,000
Spending on children = Rs. 12,000
Rest = 52,000
1/13th of the rest = 52,000/13 = Rs. 4,000 is spent on food.
Rs. 8,000 is spent in mutual funds.
Monthly savings = 64,000 - (12,000+4,000+8,000) = Rs. 40,000.

Q:

An owner of a Dry fruits shop sold small packets of mixed nuts for Rs. 150 each and large packets for Rs. 250 each. One day he sold 5000 packets, for a total of Rs. 10.50 lakh. How many small packets were sold ?

A) 2000 B) 3000
C) 2500 D) 3500
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 2000

Explanation:

Let 's' be the number of small packets and 'b' the number of large packets sold on that day.

 

Therefore, s + b = 5000 ... eqn (1)

 

Each small packet was sold for Rs.150.
Therefore, 's' small packets would have fetched Rs.150s.

 

Each large packets was sold for Rs.250.
Therefore, 'b' large packets would have fetched Rs.250b.

 

Total value of sale = 150s + 250b = Rs. 10.5 Lakhs (Given)

 

Or 150s + 250b = 10,50,000 ... eqn (2)

 

Multiplying equation (1) by 150, we get 150s + 150b = 7,50,000 ... eqn (3)

 

Subtracting eqn (3) from eqn (2), we get 100b = 3,00,000
Or b = 3000

 

We know that s + b = 5000
So, s = 5000 - b = 5000 - 3000 = 2000.

 

2000 small packets were sold.
