Nisha had given some old dresses of her own to her

house-helper Beenu. After a few days, Nisha was happily

surprised when she saw Beenu wearing one of the dresses

beautifully refurbished. On enquiry, Beenu told Nisha that

this was done by her daughter who had just completed her

Class 12th studies. Beenu also told Nisha that she was a

little concerned as her daughter did not want to study

further. Nisha was very much impressed by the creativity

of Beenu's daughter, so she decided to setup a small

business for her. Nisha bought $\displaystyle 15$ sewing machines and

appointed $\displaystyle 15$ girls to refurbish the old dresses. Nisha also

arranged old dresses from various sources and employed a

person who will sell these dresses at a very low cost for the

one's who could not purchase news dresses due to their low

income.

Nisha divided the girls in three equal groups, each having

five sewing machines. Each group was given a target of

refurbishing $\displaystyle 150$ old dresses in a fortnight with a cost of Rs.

per dress.

After a fortnight, Nisha who was supervising this business

with Beenu was informed that Group I was able to meet the

target by refurbishing $\displaystyle 150$ old dresses at a cost of Rs. $\displaystyle 30$ per

dress. Group II was able to refurbish $\displaystyle 150$ old dresses at a

cost of Rs. $\displaystyle 35$ per dress, whereas Group III could refurbish

only $\displaystyle 140$ old dresses but at a cost of Rs. $\displaystyle 27$ per dress.
