# CAT 2020 Quant Question [Slot 2] with Solution 02

Question

In May, John bought the same amount of rice and the same amount of wheat as he had bought in April, but spent ? 150 more due to price increase of rice and wheat by 20% and 12%, respectively. If John had spent ? 450 on rice in April, then how much did he spend on wheat in May?

1. ? 580
2. ? 570
3. ? 560
4. ? 590
Option: 3
Solution:

Amount spent on rice in May $= 450 \times 1.2 = ?540$.

If the amount spent on wheat in April is w, then in May it would be 1.12w.

Given, $(1.12w + 540) - (w + 450) = 150$

$\Rightarrow 12w = 60$

$\Rightarrow w = 500$

$\therefore$ The amount spent on wheat in May =1.12w i.e., ? 560
