If price of each book, each pen and each pencil is Rs. 40, Rs. 20, and Rs. 10 respectively then revenue generated by shopkeeper is Rs. 20680. Find the number of pen sold by shopkeeper.Solution
Given: Books : Pens = 13 : 8 Pens : Pencils = 4 : 13 Let Books = 13k and Pens = 8k Also, Pens = 4m and Pencils = 13m Equate Pens: 8k = 4m m = 2k So Pencils = 13m = 13(2k) = 26k Now revenue: Revenue = 40(B) + 20(P) + 10(C) = 40(13k) + 20(8k) + 10(26k) = 520k + 160k + 260k = 940k Given revenue = 20680: 940k = 20680 k = 20680 / 940 = 22 Pens sold: P = 8k = 8 × 22 = 176
