Answer : 1. "2000"
Explanation :

Answer: A) 2000 Explanation: Let 's' be the number of small packets and 'b' the number of large packets sold on that day.   Therefore, s + b = 5000 ... eqn (1)   Each small packet was sold for Rs.150.Therefore, 's' small packets would have fetched Rs.150s.   Each large packets was sold for Rs.250.Therefore, 'b' large packets would have fetched Rs.250b.   Total value of sale = 150s + 250b = Rs. 10.5 Lakhs (Given)   Or 150s + 250b = 10,50,000 ... eqn (2)   Multiplying equation (1) by 150, we get 150s + 150b = 7,50,000 ... eqn (3)   Subtracting eqn (3) from eqn (2), we get 100b = 3,00,000Or b = 3000   We know that s + b = 5000So, s = 5000 - b = 5000 - 3000 = 2000.   2000 small packets were sold.
