| |
₹ 15000 and ₹ 5000 | |
₹ 18000 and ₹ 6000 |
Question 22 Explanation:
5%P = (15/100)*Q
(10/100)*Q = (20/100)*R
(20/100)*2000
=4000
(10/100)*Q = 4000
Q = 4000
(5/100)*P = (15/100)*4000
=600
P = (600*100)/5
P=12000
(10/100)*Q = (20/100)*R
(20/100)*2000
=4000
(10/100)*Q = 4000
Q = 4000
(5/100)*P = (15/100)*4000
=600
P = (600*100)/5
P=12000
