Total number of surgical masks sold on Wednesday is how
much percent of the total number of masks sold on Monday? Answer the following questions based on the information given below: A shopkeeper sold two types of masks i.e. surgical and N95. Number of surgical masks sold on Monday is [P] which is 60 more than the number of N95 masks sold on same day. Number of surgical masks sold on Tuesday is [Q] which is 20% less than that on Monday and number of N95 masks sold on Tuesday is [R]. Total masks sold on Tuesday is 28% less than that on Monday while total masks sold on Tuesday is 432. Number of N95 masks sold on Wednesday is [S] which is 15% more than number of surgical masks sold on same day. Ratio of total masks sold on Monday to Wednesday is 60:43.Solution
Total number of masks sold on Monday = 432/0.72 = 600 Number of N95 masks sold on Monday = (600 – 60)/2 = 270 Number of surgical masks sold on Monday [P] = (600 – 270) = 330 Total number of masks sold on Tuesday = 432 Number of surgical masks sold on Tuesday [Q] = (80/100) × 330 = 264 Number of N95 masks sold on Tuesday [R] = 432 – 264 = 168 Total number of masks sold on Wednesday = (600/60) × 43 = 430 Number of surgical masks sold on Wednesday = (20/43) × 43 = 200 Number of N95 masks sold on Wednesday [S] = 430 - 200 = 230 
Required % = (200/600) × 100 = 33.33%
