Question

Adhir Mishra has three children: Urmila, Raghu and Sumit. Sumit married Roma, the eldest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Mohan. The Mohans married their youngest daughter to the eldest son of Mr. and Mrs. Sharma and they had two children Sandeep and Shaifali. The Mohans have two more children, Roshan and Bimla, both elder to Sheila. Sohan and Shivendar are sons of Sumit and Roma. Leela is the daughter of Sandeep.

Answer 1

Method: work entirely in crores first, then convert only the final answer to lacs.

Voveran's 2006 sales from the chart: approximately Rs 23 crore.
Calpol's 2005 sales from the chart: approximately Rs 13 crore.
Difference in crores = $23 - 13 = 10$ crore.
Convert this single difference to lacs: $10 \times 100 = 1000$ lacs.

Doing the subtraction first and converting once still gives 1000 lacs, confirming option 1 is correct.

\[\boxed{1000\ \text{lacs}}\]
