    Pi is denotes as (π), and is one of the most well-known mathematical constants.

    Irrational numbers are those numbers that cannot be expressed in the form of p/q where p and q are integers and q ≠ 0.

    The approximate value of π is 3.14159….. which is a non-terminating and non-repeating decimal. This cannot be written as a fraction of two whole numbers.

    as said Irrational numbers cannot be expressed in the form of p/q ,π also cannot be expressed in p/q form.

    hence, π (pi) is an irrational number.

    given,

    cost price(CP) of the tv set = 2500/-

    marked price(MP)of the tv set= 3200/-

    rate of discount=10%

    Total discount=3200 x10/100= 320/-

    i) Selling price=3200 -320

    =2880/-

    ii) profit=SP-CP

    =2880-2500

    =380/-

    profit percent= (profit x 100)/CP

    =(380 x 100)/2500

    =38000/2500

    =380/25

    =15.2% is the profit percent made by the dealer

    we don’t know the whole quantity, so let

    the whole quantity be X

    given,

    5% of X =600

    5/100 x X =600

    5 X=60000

    X=60000/5

    X= 12000

    hence, the whole quantity=12000
