Total number of cotton shirts sold by stores A and B together is what per cent of the number of shirts (linen and cotton) sold by store E? |
A) \[62\frac{1}{3}\]%
B) \[64\frac{1}{3}\]%
C) \[61\frac{2}{3}\]%
D) \[66\frac{2}{3}\]%
Correct Answer: D
Solution :
Number of cotton shirts sold by store A |
\[=\frac{5}{12}\text{of}(16\]%\[\text{of}84000)\] |
\[=\frac{5}{12}\times \frac{16}{100}\times 84000=5600\] |
Total number of cotton shirts sold by store A |
\[=\frac{6}{11}\text{of}(22\]% \[\text{of}84000)\] |
\[=\frac{6}{11}\times \frac{22}{100}\times 84000=10080\] |
Total number of cotton shirts sold by stores A and B |
\[=5600+10080=15680\] |
Total number of shirts sold by store E |
\[=28\]%\[\text{of}84000=23520\] |
\[\therefore \]Required percentage \[=\frac{15680}{23520}\times 100=66\frac{2}{3}\]% |
