Find the increase in sales in Rupees from July to August 2017. ii. If both book shops got 10% profit in the month of August 2017, find the profit for each bookseller in each subject in that month.

Answer»

i. Increase in sales in rupees from July to August 2017 

For Suresh: 

Increase in sales for Physics books = 6650 – 5600= ₹ 1050 Increase in sales for Chemistry books = 7055 – 6750 = ₹ 305 Increase in sales for Mathematics books = 8905 – 8500 = ₹ 405

For Ganesh: 

Increase in sales for Physics books = 7000 – 6650 = ₹ 350 Increase in sales for Chemistry books = 7500 – 7055 = ₹ 445 Increase in sales for Mathematics books = 10200 – 8905 = ₹ 1295 

ii. Both book shops got 10% profit in the month of August 2017. 

For Suresh:

Profit for Physics books = 6650x10/ 100 = ₹ 665

Profit for Chemistry books = 7055 x 10/100 = ₹ 705.50

Profit for Mathematics books = 8905x10/100 = ₹ 890.50

For Ganesh:

Profit for Physics books = 7000x10/ 100 = ₹ 700

Profit for Chemistry books = 7500x10/ 100 = ₹ 750

Profit for Mathematics books = 10200x10/ 100 = ₹ 1020
