Solution :
Cost of each book = Rs. 125
Number of books = 40
Then, the cost of 40 books
= Rs. 40 * 125
= Rs. 5000
So, he has Rs. 5000 with him.
For Rs. 25 discount on each book, the cost of 40 books become
= Rs. 40 * (125 - 25)
= Rs. 40 * 100
= Rs. 4000
Extra cash = Rs. (5000 - 4000)
= Rs. 1000
In Rs. 1000, the number of books with Rs. 100 cost each, can be bought
= 1000 ÷ 100
= 10
Thus, total number of books with Rs. 25 discount each is
= 40 + 10
= 50
