Question

$3,648$ people visited the book fair on the first day. It rained on the second day so $1,754$ less people went to the fair on the second day, as compared with the first day. On the third day $2,475$ people more than those who visited on the second day, went to the book fair. On which day did the maximum number of people visit the book fair?

• A. The first day
• B. The second day
• C. The third day
• D. Equal number of people visited on first and third days

Answer 1

The correct option is C The third day

Number of people visited on first day $=$ $348$

Number of people visited on second day $=$ Number of people visited on first day $-$$1754$

so,

Number of people visited on second day $=$ $3648$$-$$1754$

$=$$1894$

Now,

Number of people visited on third day $=$ Number of people visited on second day $+$$2475$

$=$ $1894$$+$$2475$

$=$ $4369$

Now, we can see that 4369 people visited on the third day which is maximum.
