Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that
The value of books sold in the first week = Rs. 2, 85,891
The value of books sold in the second week = Rs. 4, 00,768
Find out
We need to find out how much was the sale for the two weeks together and in which week was the sale greater and by how much
Solution
Total books sold in the first week and second week
We can get the total by adding the given data
Hence,
Rs. 2, 85,891 + Rs. 4, 00,768 = Rs. 6, 86,659
Hence the total sale for the complete two weeks together= Rs. 6, 86,659
Since the amount Rs 4, 00, 768, greater than the amount Rs 2, 85,891
Therefore the sale of the second week is greater than that of the first-week books sold in the first week
To find how many more books sold we need to subtract the values
More books sold in second week = Rs. 4, 00,768 -Rs. 2, 85,891= Rs 1,14,877
Therefore, the amount of Rs1,14,877 more books were sold in the second week.
Answer:
The total sale for the complete two weeks together= Rs. 6, 86,659
The sale of the second week is greater than that of the first-week books sold in the first week.
The amount of Rs1,14,877 more books were sold in the second week.
