  1. Answer:

    20

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Speaking orally,

    Suppose they have budget of x Rs.

    According to question they bought 20 ambulances which costs x/2 Rs. as 40 costs x Rs.

    So, x/2 is remaining budget & 10% of x is already saved at end so, 40% of x = (4/10)x is used to buy medical equipment.

    50 pieces cost x Rs.

    So, in (4/10)x Rs, we can buy 20 medical equipment as (4/10)x*50 = 20

    I hope, it’s right, apologize for anything wrong as answered orally & fast.
