Word Problems:-
Kirti bookstore sold books worth ₹2,85,891 in the first week of June and books worth ₹4,00,768 in the second week of the month. How much was the sale for the two weeks together? In which week was the sale greater and by how much?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Total books sold in the first week and second week

We can get the total by adding the given data

Hence,

Rs. 2, 85,891 + Rs. 4, 00,768 = Rs. 6, 86,659

Hence the total sale for the complete two weeks together= Rs. 6, 86,659

Since the amount Rs 4, 00, 768, greater than the amount Rs 2, 85,891

Therefore the sale of the second week is greater than that of the first-week books sold in the first week

To find how many more books sold we need to subtract the values

More books sold in the second week = Rs. 4, 00,768 -Rs. 2, 85,891= Rs 1,14,877

Therefore, the amount of Rs1,14,877 more books were sold in the second week.
