उत्तर

Let x be the no. of shares purchased by Mr Lal.

Value of x shares = Rs ( 100 x X) = Rs 100x 

Dividend for x no. of shares of Mercantile Co-operative Bank = 15 % of Rs 100x

= Rs `(15 xx 100  x)/100` = Rs 15 x 

Monthly scholarship = Rs 225 = Dividend/12 

⇒ Rs `(15 x)/12` = Rs 225

⇒ Rs 15 x = Rs 2700

⇒ x = 180

Hence, Mr Lal should purchase 180 shares. 

The market price for shares = Rs 120,

Investment by Mr Lal at Rs 120 = Rs ( 120 x 180) = Rs 21,600.
