Question

Alok bought shares of 6% of Rs. 100 shares at Rs. 120. Amin bought shares of 8% of Rs. 20 shares at Rs. 30. Whose investment was better ?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Case 1:  

Income on Rs 120 = 6% of  Rs 100 = Rs 6

 

Case 2:  

Income on Rs 15 = 8% of  Rs 10 = Rs  

Clearly,  16 > 15

∴ The investment in the second case is better than the investment in the first case

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Question :-

Alok bought shares of 6% of Rs. 100 shares at Rs. 120. Amin bought shares of 8% of Rs. 20 shares at Rs. 30. Whose investment was better ?

Solution :-

${\large{\underline{\sf{\green{6\% \: of \: Rs. 100 \: shares \: at \: Rs. 120 : }}}}}$

❍ The annual income from 1 shares of NV Rs. 100 is Rs. 6, investment for 1 share being Rs. 120

$⛬ \: \: \: \: \: {\bold{\sf{ profit \: percentage \: = \ \: \frac{6}{120} \: × \: 100 \% \: = \: 5\%}}}$

${\bold{\sf{⛬ \: \: \: \: \: Alok's \: shares \: give \: him \: profit \: of \: 5\%}}}$

${\large{\underline{\sf{\green{8\% \: of \: Rs. \: 20 \: shares \: at \: \: Rs. \: 30 \: :}}}}}$

❍ The annual income from 1 share of NV Rs. 20 is Rs. 8 × 20/100, investment for share being Rs. 30

${\bold{\sf{⛬ \: \: \: \: \: profit \: percentage \: = \: \frac{\frac{8 \: × \: 20}{100}}{100} \: = \: 5\frac{1}{3}\%}}}$

${\bold{\sf{⛬ \: \: \: \: \: Amin's \: shares \: give \: him \: profit \: of \: 5\frac{1}{3}\%}}}$

${\bold{⟹ \: \: \: \: \: }} {\bold{\rm{\red{Amin's \: investment \: was \: better}}}}$
