Bread Sales by Five Stores

Question 1

If another store 'F' sold number of multigrain packets which is average number of multigrain packets sold by stores 'C', 'D' and 'E' and average number of whole-wheat packets sold by stores 'A' and 'E'. If store 'B' sold each packet at ₹ 240 and store 'F' sold each packet at 20% more than that of 'B', then total revenue collected by store 'F' is:

Accepted Answer

B. Average multigrain sold by C, D, and E = $\frac{72 + 54 + 84}{3} = 70$. Average whole-wheat sold by A and E = $\frac{44 + 72}{2} = 58$. Total packets sold by store F = $70 + 58 = 128$. Selling price per packet for store F = $240 	imes 1.20 = ₹ 288$. Total revenue collected by store F = $128 	imes 288 = ₹ 36864$.

Question 2

The total number of packets sold by store 'C' is approximately what percent more or less than the total number of packets sold by store 'E'?

Accepted Answer

B. Total packets sold by store C = $72 + 80 = 152$. Total packets sold by store E = $84 + 72 = 156$. Percentage difference = $\frac{152 - 156}{156} 	imes 100\% = -2.56\% \approx 3\%$ less.

Question 3

Multigrain packets sold by stores 'A' and 'B' together are what percent more or less than whole-wheat packets sold by stores 'C' and 'D' together?

Accepted Answer

D. Multigrain packets sold by stores A & B = $92 + 64 = 156$. Whole-wheat packets sold by stores C & D = $80 + 40 = 120$. Required percentage = $\frac{156 - 120}{120} 	imes 100\% = 30\%$ more.
