उत्तर

Let Vikram's investment be x. 

Face value of 200 shares = Rs (25 x 200) = Rs 5,000 

Dividend for 200 shares = 8 %  of Rs 5,000 = Rs `(8 xx 5000)/100` = Rs 400

He gets Rs 400 as dividend which is equal to 10°/o of money invested 

⇒ `(10 x)/100` = Rs 400

⇒ x = Rs 4000

Hence, Vikram invested Rs 4,000. 

No. of shares bought by Vikram = 200 

Value of a share = Rs `4000/200` = Rs 20

Vikram bought a share for Rs 20.
