Directions: Answer the questions based on the information given below.
There are four companies A, B, C, and D. Data given below shows the number of products sold and unsold by these shopkeepers.
The total number of products manufactured by 'A' is 120, and the ratio of sold and unsold products of company 'B' is 3 : 1. The total number of products manufactured by company 'B' and 'D' is 260, and the difference between the number of unsold and sold products by 'C' is 90. The total number of products manufactured by 'C' is 150 which is 12 less than that of products sold by 'D'. The difference between the products unsold by 'B' and 'D' is 2. The number of products sold by 'A' is x% as that of 'B'.
Note : The number of products sold by each company is more than that of products unsold.
If the number of products unsold by 'A' is 30, and the number of products manufactured by 'E' is thrice that of company 'D', then find the number of unsold products of company 'E', if the sold products of company 'E' is 2x.
60
80
100
120
240
Let’s break down the information step-by-step:
- A: Total manufactured = 120, Unsold = 30 ? Sold = 120 - 30 = 90
- B & D: Total manufactured together = 260
- B: Ratio Sold : Unsold = 3:1 ? let sold = 3k, unsold = k, so total = 4k.
- C: Total manufactured = 150. Difference between unsold and sold = 90. Since sold > unsold possible only if sold – unsold = 90:
Sold = x, Unsold = 150 - x, x - (150 - x) = 90 ? 2x - 150 = 90 ? 2x = 240 ? x = 120
So, C: Sold = 120, Unsold = 30
Also, total from D = 150 + 12 = 162 (Products sold by D = 162)
- B & D total = 260, D manufactured = 260 - B manufactured.
- B total = 4k ? D total = 260 - 4k
Now info on unsold by B and D: |B unsold - D unsold| = 2
- For B: unsold = k
- For D: manufactured = 260 - 4k. Sold = 162, so unsold = (260 - 4k) - 162 = 98 - 4k
So |k - (98 - 4k)| = 2 ? k - 98 + 4k = 2 or -(k - 98 + 4k) = 2
5k - 98 = 2 ? 5k = 100 ? k = 20
Now, B: unsold = 20, sold = 60, total = 80
D: manufactured = 260 - 80 = 180
Sold = 162 ? unsold = 18
Crosscheck everything:
A: 90/30 ; B: 60/20 ; C: 120/30 ; D: 162/18
x% for A to B sold: 90 = x% of 60 ? x = 150
E: Manufactured by E = triple of D = 3 × 180 = 540
Sold by E = 2x = 2 × 150 = 300
So, unsold = 540 - 300 = 240
So the correct option is:
- 1: 60
- 2: 80
- 3: 100
- 4: 120
- 5: 240
