Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The correct answer is Option 3 i.e. Rs. 6,441.
The total sales for 5 days = 6050 × 5 = ₹30250
Let his sale on the fifth day be X
According to the question
⇒ 5,445 + 5,937 + 5,865 + 6,562 + X = 30250
⇒ 23809 + X = 30250
⇒ X = 30250 - 23809 = ₹6441
Hence, his sale on the fifth day is ₹6441
