Question

what is the total number of customers on a particular day, when 31% of them purchases on credit and the number of cash purchase exceeds credit purchase by 247?​

Answer 1

Answer:

650

Step-by-step explanation:

let the total no. of costumers be X .

According to the question :

No. of costumers who purchase via credit are 31 percent ( % ) of X

i.e., 31x/100 .

then , no. of co costumers who purchase via cash will be 69 % of X

i.e., 69x/100

according to the question :

No. of costumers who purchase via cash exceeds no. of costumers who purchase via credit by 247

69x/100 -- 31x/100 = 247

=> 38x/100 = 247

solve the given equation for X you will get your answer .

Thank you .
