Solve each of the following question using appropriate Euclid’s axiom:  Two salesmen make equal sales during the month of August. In September, each salesman doubles his sale of the month of August. Compare their sales in September.

Answers (1)

Sales in September are also equal.

Solution:

Let us suppose that the sales of two salesmen in august is A. As per the question, in September, each salesman doubles his sale as compared to sale in august.

Thus, the sale of first salesman is 2A and sale of second salesman is also 2A.

Hence the sales of both the salesman are equal in September. 

According to Euclid’s axiom, things which are double of the same things are equal to one another.

Hence, the sales in September are also equal.
