1. Barkat bought equal numbers of 2-paisa and 30-paisa stamps. If the total cost of the stamps was Tk. 10.00, what was the total number of stamps bought?
- A. 25
- B. 25
- C. 25
- D. 25
Answer: Option C
Explanation:
***The question is erroneous.
Let the number of each type stamps is S.
Now, 10 TK = 10 x 100 paisa = 1000 paisa
So, 20S + 30S = 1000
or, 50S = 1000
or, S = 100/50 = 20
So, the number of total stamps = 20 + 20 = 40
