Question

If the total number of hats sold by stores M and N together in July is 15% more than the total number of hats sold by the same stores together during June, what is the total number of hats sold by the same stores together during July?

• A. 1298
• B. 1316
• C. 1356
• D. 1284
• E. 1334

Answer 1

The correct option is E 1334

Total number of hats sold by stores M and N together in June
= 440 + 720 = 1160
Hence, total number of hats sold by stores M and N together in July
$=1160\times \frac{115}{100}=1334$
