Five pens cost Rs 115. Howmany pens can you buy in Rs 20 7 ?

Answer

To solve the problem step by step, we will follow these calculations:

### Step 1: Find the cost of one pen.
We know that 5 pens cost Rs 115. To find the cost of one pen, we divide the total cost by the number of pens.

\[ \text{Cost of 1 pen} = \frac{\text{Total Cost}}{\text{Number of Pens}} = \frac{115}{5} \]

Calculating this gives:

\[ \text{Cost of 1 pen} = 23 \text{ Rs} \]

### Step 2: Determine how many pens can be bought with Rs 207.
Now that we know the cost of one pen is Rs 23, we can find out how many pens can be bought with Rs 207. We do this by dividing the total amount of money available by the cost of one pen.

\[ \text{Number of pens} = \frac{\text{Total Amount}}{\text{Cost of 1 pen}} = \frac{207}{23} \]

Calculating this gives:

\[ \text{Number of pens} = 9 \]

### Final Answer:
You can buy **9 pens** with Rs 207.
