The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to calculate the total sales if the store sold 500 bottles of each type of sanitizer (Alpha and Beta) in June.
### Step-by-Step Solution:
1. **Identify the price of each sanitizer:**
- Price of Alpha sanitizer = Rs. 10
- Price of Beta sanitizer = Rs. 12
2. **Calculate the total sales for Alpha sanitizer:**
- Number of Alpha bottles sold = 500
- Total sales from Alpha = Number of bottles × Price per bottle
- Total sales from Alpha = 500 × 10 = Rs. 5000
3. **Calculate the total sales for Beta sanitizer:**
- Number of Beta bottles sold = 500
- Total sales from Beta = Number of bottles × Price per bottle
- Total sales from Beta = 500 × 12 = Rs. 6000
4. **Calculate the total sales for both sanitizers:**
- Total sales = Total sales from Alpha + Total sales from Beta
- Total sales = 5000 + 6000 = Rs. 11000
### Final Answer:
The total sales if the store sold 500 bottles of each type of sanitizer in June would be Rs. 11,000.
