Direction (63-65): Read the information carefully and answer the following questions.
Three shops (A, B and C) sold two types of watches (Analog and Digital). Ratio of number of Analog watches sold by shop A to the number of digital watches sold by B is 5: 4 and the number of Digital watches sold by A is 25% less than that of B. Number of digital watches sold by C is 40% more than that of analog by C.

Number of the number of Digital watches sold by C is what percentage of analog watches sold by A and C together.
Correct Answer :
70%
Solution :
Let us analyze the given information step-by-step to find the number of watches sold by each shop.
Step 1: Calculate watches for Shop B
We are given that the number of analog watches sold by B is 30, which is 25% less than the number of digital watches sold by B.
Let the number of digital watches sold by B be .
Since the number of analog watches sold by B is 25% less than :
So, the number of digital watches sold by Shop B is 40.
Step 2: Calculate watches for Shop A
The ratio of the number of analog watches sold by shop A to the number of digital watches sold by B is 5 : 4.
Let the number of analog watches sold by A be .
The number of digital watches sold by A is 25% less than that of B.
Let the number of digital watches sold by A be .
Step 3: Calculate watches for Shop C
The total number of digital watches sold by all three shops is 140.
The number of digital watches sold by C is 40% more than the number of analog watches sold by C.
Let the number of analog watches sold by C be .
Step 4: Find the required percentage
We need to find what percentage of the analog watches sold by A and C together is the number of digital watches sold by C.
First, find the sum of analog watches sold by A and C:
Now, calculate the percentage:
