NTA UGC NET Dec 2024 Paper-1

Bakery shops in a city prepare three different varieties of hotcakes, namely, Cornmeal,

American and Swedish. The following table shows the total number of hotcakes (three

varieties together) sold by four different bakery shops, namely A, B,C and D on Monday

along with the number of Cornmeal hotcakes sold and the difference between the number of

American hotcakes and Cornmeal hotcakes sold. Based on the data in the table, answer the

questions that follow.

 

Bakery-wise Sale Details of Hotcakes on Monday
Bakery	Total number of hotcakes sold	Number of commercial hotcakes sold	Difference between the number of American and Cornmeal hotcakes sold
A	1200	320	40
B	1080	280	120
C	1000	360	80
D	1320	420	40

 

Note :
(1) Total number of hotcakes sold = sum of sale of a number of Cornmeal,American

and Swedish hotcakes

(2) The number of American hotcakes sold is always greater than the number of Cornmeal

hotcakes sold

 

If the number of cornmeal hotcakes sold by bakery B on Tuesday (that is, the next day) is
20% more than that on Monday, the ratio of the number of American hotcakes to Swedish
hotcakes by bakery B on Tuesday is 4:5. and the number of American hotcakes sold by
bakery B on Tuesday is 320, then what is the total number of hotcakes sold by bakery B on
Tuesday?
