The worth of each article = 525.
The no. of articles that shopkeeper can buy = 52.
Therefore the total amount he had = 525×52 = 27300
After the increase in the worth of articles ,
The worth of each article = 525+21 = 546
The total amount he had = 27300
So, the total no. of articles he has to buy = 27300÷546 = 50.
The no.of articles he can buy = 50 articles .
