Directions :Study the data carefully and answer the following questions:
Below line graph shows the number of cups of two types (ceramic and plastic) sold by a shopkeeper in five months (June, July, August, September, and October):
Note:-
The ratio of number of plastic cups sold to the number of steel cups sold in each month is 6: 7.
If the number of ceramic cups, plastic cups, and steel cups sold in December is 20%, 50%, and 40% more than that of sold in September, respectively, then what is the total number of cups sold by the shopkeeper in December?
1.1212
2.1136
3.1108
4.1008
5.1114
Correct Answer : 2
Solution :
In June:
Number of ceramic cups sold = 240
Number of plastic cups sold = 540
Number of steel cups sold = 540 * 7/6 = 630
Similarly, calculating the remaining data:
Ceramic
Plastic
Steel
June
240
540
630
July
180
360
420
August
280
180
210
September
320
240
280
October
480
300
350
The total number of cups sold by the shopkeeper in December = 120 * 320/100 + 150/100 * 240 + 140/100 * 280 = 1136
