. Aman prints visiting cards of four standard sizes - `(L xx 2)` sq cm, `(6 xx 3)` sq cm, `(5 xx 5)` sq cm and `(2 xx 2)` sq cm. On Monday he printed cards of two sizes `(L xx 2)` sq cm and `(6 xx 3)` sq cm for a client. The respective ratio between the number of `(L xx 2)` sq cm cards and the number of `(6 xx 3)` sq cm cards printed on Monday was 2:3. The client had to pay a total of rs1600 for the `(L xx 2)` sq cm card and a total of rs 5400 for `(6 xx 3)` sq cm card, (Both at the rate of rs 2 per sq. cm).

The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to find out how many `(6 xx 3)` sq cm cards Aman printed on Monday. Let's break down the information step by step. ### Step 1: Understand the sizes and costs - Aman prints cards of sizes `(L xx 2)` sq cm and `(6 xx 3)` sq cm. - The cost of printing is Rs 2 per sq cm. ### Step 2: Calculate the area of each card 1. For the `(L xx 2)` sq cm card: - Area = L * 2 sq cm (we will find L later) 2. For the `(6 xx 3)` sq cm card: - Area = 6 * 3 = 18 sq cm ### Step 3: Set up the ratio of cards printed - The ratio of the number of `(L xx 2)` sq cm cards to `(6 xx 3)` sq cm cards is given as 2:3. - Let the number of `(L xx 2)` sq cm cards be `2x` and the number of `(6 xx 3)` sq cm cards be `3x`. ### Step 4: Calculate the total cost for each card type 1. Total cost for `(L xx 2)` sq cm cards: - Total cost = Rs 1600 - Cost per card = Area * Rate - Therefore, for `(L xx 2)` sq cm cards: \[ \text{Total cost} = (L * 2) * 2x = 1600 \] Simplifying gives: \[ 4xL = 1600 \implies xL = 400 \implies L = \frac{400}{x} \] 2. Total cost for `(6 xx 3)` sq cm cards: - Total cost = Rs 5400 - Therefore, for `(6 xx 3)` sq cm cards: \[ \text{Total cost} = (18) * (3x) * 2 = 5400 \] Simplifying gives: \[ 108x = 5400 \implies x = \frac{5400}{108} = 50 \] ### Step 5: Calculate the number of `(6 xx 3)` sq cm cards printed - Now that we have `x = 50`, we can find the number of `(6 xx 3)` sq cm cards: \[ \text{Number of } (6 xx 3) \text{ cards} = 3x = 3 * 50 = 150 \] ### Final Answer Aman printed **150** cards of size `(6 xx 3)` sq cm on Monday. ---
