Answer»

Hey Dear,

◆ Answer -

4 sets

● Explaination -

For a single set of SHOES & socks, amount of money required WOULD be -

Money required = 212.70 + 18.65

Money required = ₹ 231.35

For two sets of shoes & socks -

Money required = 2 × 231.35

Money required = ₹ 462.7

For THREE sets of shoes & socks -

Money required = 3 × 231.35

Money required = ₹ 694.05

For four sets of shoes & socks -

Money required = 4 × 231.35

Money required = ₹ 925.4

For five sets of shoes & socks -

Money required = 5 × 231.35

Money required = ₹ 1156.75

Cost of 5 sets exceeds 1000 ₹, thus only 4 sets can be BOUGHT in 1000 ₹.

From calculated data, we can say that maximum of 4 sets of shoes & socks can be bought in ₹ 1000.

Thanks..
