      Question

      A school purchased a total of 15000 books where 20% of the

      books were textbooks and the remaining were reference books. If 75% of the textbooks purchased and 50% of the reference books purchased were distributed to students, find the total number of books distributed.
      A 9205 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 3625 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 8250 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 7875 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      ATQ,

      Number of textbooks purchased = 15000 X 0.20 = 3000

      Number of textbooks distributed = 3000 X 0.75 = 2250

      Number of reference books purchased = 15000 - 3000 = 12000

      Number of reference books distributed = 12000 X 0.50 = 6000

      So, total number of books distributed = 2250 + 6000 = 8250
