Answer» Correct Answer - Option 3 : Quantity I > Quantity II Quantity I: Given: [(1/3) of (1/5) of a number] – 5 = (1/30) of the same number Calculation: Let the number be x [(1/3) × (1/5) × x] – 5 = (1/30) × x ⇒ [(1/15) × x] – 5 = (1/30) × x ⇒ (x – 75)/15 = (1/30) × x ⇒ (x – 75) = (1/2) × x ⇒ 2x – 150 = x ⇒ x = 150 The number is 150. Quantity II: Given: Denomination of notes in the bag are ₹ 50, ₹ 100 and ₹ 200 Calculation: Let x be the number of notes in each bag 50x + 100x + 200x = 10500 ⇒ 350x = 10500 ⇒ x = 30 The number of notes in each bag are 30. ∴ We can deduce that Quantity I > Quantity II. |
