    than the number of toy helicopters sold by the same shop. If the ratio of number of toy gliders sold to number of toy helicopters sold is 5:2, and the total number of toys (airplanes + gliders + helicopters) sold by the shop is 9500, then find the number of toy gliders sold by the shop.

    E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Let the number of toy helicopters sold by the shop be 100x Number of toy airplanes sold = 100x × 1.25 = 125x Number of toy gliders sold = 100x × (5/2) = 250x ATP, 100x + 125x + 250x = 9500 475x = 9500 x = 20 So, number of toy gliders sold = 250 × 20 = 5000
