Detailed Solution
Download Solution PDFGiven :
Price of an article A increases by Rs. 40 every year.
Price of article B increases by Rs. 15 every year.
Calculation:
Price of the article A was Rs. 420.
Price of the article B was Rs. 630.
Increase in price in 10 years of article A = 40 × 10 = 400
Increase in price in 10 years of article B = 15 × 10 =150
Final price article A = 420 + 400 = 820
Final price article B = 630 + 150 = 780
We can see that Difference in price of A and B = 820 - 780 = 40
So, In 2025 the difference of 40 will be created.
∴ The correct answer is 2025.
