      D 5 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      ATQ,

      x% of 400 + {800 ÷ x of 8} × 4 = 88

      Or, 4x + 320/x = 88

      Or, x² – 22x + 80 = 0

      Or, x² – 10x – 12x + 80 = 0

      Or, x(x – 10) – 12(x – 10) = 0

      Or, (x – 12)(x – 10) = 0

      Or, x = 10 or x = 12
