Options:

14,880

10,488

20,000

18,480

Correct Answer:

18,480

Explanation:

16% = \(\frac{4}{25}\)

Total cake sold on saturday = \(\frac{4}{25}\) × 10500110

= 1680

ratio of vanilla cakes sold to chocolate cakes sold on Friday = 4 : 3

7R = 1680

1R = 240

Number of vanilla cake = 4R = 960 , Number of chocolate cake = 3R = 720

Total earned amount = 960 × 8 + 720 × 15

= 7680 + 10800 = 18480
