Answer 1

Total cost = rs.18000

Answer 2

No. of blankets = 36
Cost of each blankets = Rs 500
∴ Total CP = 500*36
                  = Rs 18000
Discount = 25%
∴ Total discount = 18000*25%
                          = Rs 4500
∴ No. of extra blankets = 4500/500
                                     = 9
So there are 9 extra blankets.
