Answer 1

Answer:

The shopkeeper can buy 50 books if he gets a discount of 25 rupees on each book.

Given

The shopkeeper has money to buy 40 books

The first of each book is 125 rupees

Explanation:

let's calculate the amount of money the shopkeeper has

Total amount of money the shopkeeper has = 40 X 125 = 5000 rupees

The shopkeeper gets a discount of rupees 25 on each book

therefore the cost of one book after discount =100 rupees

therefore the no of books he can buy = 5000/100 = 50
