Given that in a shirt factory , 15% of the shirts produced are defective so 85% are non defective.
From this remaining 85% non defective shirts, 20% are sold in domestic market and the remaining 80% are left for export which is equal to 8840 shirts i.e. 80% of 85% of x = 8840
⟹ 4/5 × 17x/20 = 8840
⟹ x = 13000
The number of shirts produced in the factory is 13000
Answer
13000
