Correct Answer: 46.38%
Solution :
Selling price of P = 450 + 90% of 450 = 450 × 1.9 = 855
Selling price of Q = 250 + 100% of 250 = 250 × 2 = 500
Selling price of R = 600 + 60% of 600 = 600 × 1.6 = 960
Selling price of S = 730 + 70% of 730 = 730 × 1.7 = 1241
Selling price of T = 400 + 80% of 400 = 400 × 1.8 = 720
Now, the total selling price of P and Q = 855 + 500 = 1355
and the total selling price of R, S, and T = 960 + 1241 + 720 = 2921
So, the required percentage = $\frac{1355}{2921}×100$ = 46.38%
Hence, the correct answer is 46.38%.
