बेरीज

उत्तर

Let Archana's investment be x. 

Face value of 250 shares= Rs (50 x 250) =Rs 12,500

Dividend for 250 shares = 12 % of Rs 12500 = Rs `(12 xx 12500)/100` = Rs 1500

She gets Rs 1,500 as dividend which is equal to 15°/o of money invested 

⇒ `(15 x)/100` = Rs 1500

⇒ x = Rs 10000

Hence, Archana invested Rs 10,000. 

No. of shares bought by Archana = 250 

Value of a share = Rs `10000/250` = Rs 40

Archana bought a share for Rs 40.
