Answer:
22 carpets
number of carpet merchant can able to buy is 22
Step-by-step explanation:
initial price of each carpet = 500
Total amount merchant has = 25 carpet price
=25×500
=12500 rs
if carpet price increases 50 then
new price of carpet = 500 + 50
=550
number of carpet merchant
can able to buy = 12500 ÷550 = 22.7
= 22 carpets
