Question
In a colony, there are 110 APL families and 50 BPL
families. Each APL and BPL family got blankets equal to 20% and 75%, respectively of total number of families (APL + BPL) in the colony. Find the difference between total number of blankets received by APL and BPL families.Solution
Total number of families in the colony = 110 + 50 = 160 Number of blankets received by APL families = 110 x 0.20 x 160 = 3520 Number of blankets received by BPL families = 50 x 0.75 x 160 = 6000 Required difference = 6000 - 3520 = 2480
