Apple launched its tablet i-pad on April 1, 2010. For the tablet, which was sold exclusively online, the bookings started on April 1, 2010 and ended on September 30, 2010. There was only 1 model in the entire line up and it was offered at a fixed price. There were 3 modes of booking. Premium booking (product delivered in the same month at 5% premium), i.e. one had to pay 105% of the price of the tablet.
Normal booking (product delivered in the next month), i.e. if the booking was done in the nth month, it was delivered in the (n + 1)th month, without any extra charge.
Discounted booking (product delivered in next to next month), i.e. if the booking was done in the nth month, it was delivered in the (n + 2)th month, at 2% discount, i.e. one had to pay 98% of the price of the tablet. The payment for all kind of deliveries was done in the month of the booking.

Directions: Read the information carefully and answer the question tha...
Let the number of normal bookings in August be 'a'. The construction of the following table shall be useful.

Now, if we see the column for October,
Number of deliveries made in October = Number of normal bookings in September + Number of discounted bookings in August
790 = 272 + 1135 - a
Or, a = 617
Now, the value of 'a' can be verified from the column for November.
Number of deliveries made in November = Number of discounted bookings in September = 148 + a
Putting 'a' as 617 in the above equation, we get the number of deliveries in November as 148 + 617 = 765
This is given in the table.
Now, substituting the value of 'a' as 617 in the above table, we get the following table.

There were 577 discounted bookings of tablets in May.
