Question : 145 of 155

Marks: +1, -0

Solution:

Concept:

Form a linear equation using the number of P and Q products sold and their selling prices.

Explanation:

From the given data, total products sold by shop A on Tuesday = 100.

Let the number of P products be

x

Then number of Q products

=100-x

Amount generated from P

=150x

Amount generated from Q

=120(100-x)

Total amount generated is Rs. 13650.

150x+120(100-x)=13650

150x+12000-120x=13650

30x=1650

x=55

So P products sold

=55

Q products sold

=100-55=45

Difference between the values of P and Q

=55-45=10

Answer:

10

, i.e. Option B.
