Answer / pirate
25 pencils = 100 , so each pencil is Rs 4/-
15 books = 100, so each book is 100/15
Now, he has kept aside 15%, that is 15 Rs
So, remaining is (5*4) + X * (100/15) + 15 = 100
X * (100/15) = 100 - 15 -20, so,
X = 65 * 15 / 100 = 39/4 ~ 9
So, answer is none.

he has rs100
rs 100/25 = rs 4 per pencil
rs 100/15 = rs 6.66 per book
rs 100 - 15(he keeps 15%) - 20 (he buys 5 pencils)

rs 65 then
65 / 6.66 per book = 9 books = 59.94
65 - 59.94 = 5.06 means
he buys 9 books and has rs 5.06 change
