Question:

The following pie chart and table shows the percentage wise distribution of Computers, say brand A and brand B by six shops during six-months July - December in the year 2022.

Total Number of Computers = 2400

If 37.5% of the computers sold by brand A during the month of September were sold at a discount, then how many computers brand A were sold without a discount during the month September?

Options:

160

170

180

225

Correct Answer:

225

Explanation:

Total number of Computers sold in September is 25%

100% = 2400

25% = 24 × 25 = 600

Ratio of brand A and brand B computers in September is 3 : 2

5 Units = 600

1 Unit = 120

(3 Units) Brand A = 360

37.5% of computers sold on discount of A.  Then, 62.5% of computers were sold without discount = 62.5% × 360 =  \(\frac{5}{8}\)× 360 = 225 Computers
