Given:

Printing cost = ₹40,200

Printing cost percentage = 20%

Promotion cost percentage = 10%

Formula used:

Promotion cost = (Promotion% / Printing%) × Printing cost

Calculation:

⇒ Promotion cost = (10% / 20%) × ₹40,200

⇒ Promotion cost = 0.5 × ₹40,200

⇒ Promotion cost = ₹20,100

∴ The expenditure for the promotion of these books is ₹20,100.
