Solution

The correct option is D ₹6,86,659, Sale was greater in second week by ₹1,14,877

Cost of the books sold in first week= 2,85,891Cost of the books sold in second week= 4,00,768Total cost of the books sold(i.e sum)= 6,86,659

Therefore, the sale for the two weeks together = ₹6,86,659.

Since 4,00,768 > 2,85,891
Therefore, sale of second week is greater than that of first week.

Cost of the books sold in second week= 4,00,768Cost of the books sold in first week= 2,85,891Difference= 1,14,877

Therefore, sale of books is greater in second week by ₹1,14,877.
