Actual price of each shirt = Rs`100/125xx1250=` Rs 1,000 Profit earned during non-festive season = Rs (1,250 – 1,000)`xx` 50 = Rs 12,500 Profit earned during festival season = (1,100 – 1,000) × 50= Rs 5,000 Total profit = Rs 17,500 Cost of a shirt during festival season = Rs 1,100 Now, `17500/1100` = 15.909 Maximum number of shirt that can be bought = 15
