      Question

      After selling 30% of his stock, Arjun was left with 45

      fewer items than 65% of the total stock he had at the beginning. How many items did Arjun sell?
      A 270 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 144 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 300 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 140 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      ATQ,

      Let the total number of items Arjun had be β€˜x’

      According to the question,

      0.7x = 0.65x – 45

      Or, x = 45 / (0.05) = 900

      Therefore, number of items sold by Arjun = 0.3x = 270
