1. Munir bought a TV on credit for Tk.x. He has to pay the money in there months. In the first month he paid 1/6 th of the amount. In the next month he paid 1/6 th of the remaining amount plus Tk.400. In terms of x, how much does he have to pay in the third month?

  • A. (x - 400)/6
  • B. (x - 400)/6
  • C. (x - 400)/6
  • D. (x - 400)/6

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

In the first month paid, x/6 Tk.

Remaining = x - x/6 = Tk.5x/6

In the 2nd month paid y = 1/6 × 5x/6 + 400

= 5x /36 + 400

Remaining for 3rd month = ( 5x /6 - 5x /36 - 400) = 30x - 5x /36 - 400 = 25x/36 - 400
