    What would be the maximum amount of increase in sales for the baker, if all customers who bought any type of bread would ALSO have bought either Cakes and Pastries OR biscuits?

    A.

    560

    B.

    600

    C.

    700

    D.

    840

    Correct option is D

    Given:

    ​The information related to the sale (in rupees) of different items of a baker's shop in one day​

    Solution:

    Total customers who bought any type of breads = 40 + 16 = 56

    Amount of cakes and pastries each = 21014\frac{210}{14} ​= Rs. 15

    Amount of biscuit each = 12012\frac{120}{12}​ = Rs. 10

    To get the maximum amount we need to work on maximum amount between cakes and pastries, and biscuits

    So, maximum amount of sales increase = 56 × 15

    => Rs. 840

    Thus, the required answer is 840.
