The cost of one pen is Rs 8 and it is available in a sealed pack of 10 pens. If Swetha has only Rs 500, how many packs of pens can she buy at the maximum? (i) 10 (ii) 5 (iii) 6 (iv) 8

Answer»

(iii) 6

Price of 1 pen = Rs 8 

Price of 1 pack = 10 x 8 = 80 

Number of packs Swetha can buy = x

80x ≤ 500 

8x ≤ 50 

x ≤ \(\frac{50}{8}\) = 6.25 

x is a natural number x = 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6
