Question

Two vendors have given a quotation for the price of 10 trophies.

Select the vendor who offered the lower cost.

• A. Vendor X
• B. Vendor Y
• C. Both the vendors have offered the same price.
• D. Cannot be determined

Answer 1

The correct option is B Vendor Y

Cost of trophies offered by two vendors are:
Vendor X = ₹11,528
Vendor Y = ₹11,238

To identify which vendor has offered the lower cost, we will first write the numbers in the place value chart.


In the given numbers, the numbers at ten thousands and thousands place are same.

So, we will compare the digits at the hundreds place as they are all different.


We can clearly see that 2 is the smaller digit.

So 11,238 is the smallest number.

∴ Vendor Y has offered the lower cost.
