Correct Answer: Only I
Solution :
I. The ratio of the total number of erasers sold by P in J and K to the total number of erasers sold by Q in M and N is 93 ∶ 98.
Total number of erasers sold by P in J and K = 250 + 240 = 490
Total number of erasers sold by Q in M and N = 230 + 225 = 455
Ratio = 490 : 455 = 98 : 91
Statement I is wrong.
II. The difference between the total number of erasers sold by P and Q is 0.
The total number of eraser sold by P = 250 + 240 + 220 + 215 + 205 = 1130
The total number of eraser sold by Q = 205 + 210 + 260 + 230 + 225 = 1130
Difference = 1130 - 1130 = 0
Statement II is correct.
Hence, the correct answer is only I.
