A collection of books went on sale and 2/3 of them was sold for Tk 2.30 each. If none of the 36 remaining books were sold, what was the total amount received for the books that were sold?

A 165.6

B 180

C 135.6

D 90

Solution

Correct Answer: Option A

Remaining books = 1 - 2/3 = 1/3
1/3 of the books = 36 books
So, 2/3 of the books = 36×(2/3) / (1/3) = 72

∴ Total amount received for the sold books = 72 x 2.30 = 165.6 TK
