It is given for every 800 cheques 100 are error
so (800-100)=700 error free
total 16000 cheques
so dividing them into 800 in each we get (16000/800)=20
so 20 sets of cheques (each 800) where each set has 700 error free
so 20*700=14000 is the answer

It is given for every 800 cheques 100 are error. so that the remaining (800-100) 700 error free.
total num of chqs = 16000 cheques
so dividing them into 800 in each we get (16000/800)= 20
so 20 sets of cheques (each 800) where each set has 700 error free
so 20*700 14000 is the answer
