Increase in sales for Chemistry books
= 7055 – 6750 = ₹ 305
Increase in sales for Mathematics books
= 8905 – 8500 = ₹ 405
For Ganesh:
Increase in sales for Physics books
= 7000 – 6650 = ₹ 350
Increase in sales for Chemistry books
= 7500 – 7055 = ₹ 445
Increase in sales for Mathematics books
= 10200 – 8905 = ₹ 1295
Hence, total increase in sales for suresh book shop is ₹ 1760 and for Ganesh book shop is ₹ 2090.
