• A. 882
• B. 1635
• C. 1638
• D. 885
• E. None of these

Answer 1

The correct option is C

1638

Number of mobile phones sold in the month of November = 45000 x $\frac{12}{100}$ = 5400

Number of mobile phones sold by Company A in the month of November = 5400 x $\frac{7}{15}$ = 2520

$\therefore$Number of mobile phones sold without discount in the month of November by Company A = 2520 x $\frac{65}{100}$ = 1638
