Question:

A shopkeeper has announced 40% rebate on the price of TV sets at the time of sale. If a purchaser needs to have a rebate of ₹26,400, then how many TV sets each costing ₹6,000 should he purchase?

Options:

9

11

8

12

Correct Answer:

11

Explanation:

Rebate on TV price = 40%

Rebate wanted = Rs. 26,400

Price of each TV = Rs. 6000

Let the total price =  m.

According to the question

m × \(\frac{2}{5}\) = 26400

m = 66000

Number of TV sets = \(\frac{66000}{6000}\) = 11
