Hi ,
i ) 52 books cost = Rs 525.00
Cost of one book = 525 / 52
= Rs 10.10 ( approx )
ii ) if each book were cost Rs 21 more
then each book new cost = Rs 10.10 + Rs 21
= Rs31.10
Number of book the shopkeper able to buy
with Rs 525
= 525 / 31.10 = 16.88
He can buy 16 books with Rs525.
I hope this helps you.
