Answer:

Answer is 911 toys.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let correct 3 digit number be 100x+10y+z
so the reversed number(incorrect number of toys sold) becomes 100z+10y+x

Since shopkeeper has 792 extra items, that means actual number of toys sold are 792 more than incorrect number of toys sold. i.e: -
100x+10y+z=100z+10y+x+792
Cancelling out 10y from both sides and reshuffling variables and constants we get:
99x-99z=792
x-z=8 or x=8+z --> eq1
Since we know z is non zero, and value of x can be only from 1-9 because it is a digit hence the only possible value of z is 1.
Putting  z =1 in eq 1 we get x=9 and since y=z
Answer is 911.
