Question
A shopkeeper planned to sell 200 shirts each priced at
Rs 2,240 in a particular year. Each shirt, if it had been sold at the mentioned price would have been possibly earned him a 40% profit. However, 100 out of these 200 shirts were sold at a discount of Rs 240 each shirt during the festival season. Find the maximum possible number of shirts one could have bought during the festival season with an amount that is same as the profit earned by the shopkeeper in the entire year?Solution
Actual price of each shirt = Rs 100/140×2,240= Rs 1,600 Profit earned during non-festive season = Rs (2,240 – 1,600) × 100 = Rs 64,000 Profit earned during festival season = (2,000 – 1,600) × 100= Rs 40,000 Total profit = Rs 1,04,000 Cost of a shirt during festival season = Rs 2,000 Now, 1,04,000/2000 = 52 Maximum number of shirt that can be bought = 52
