Let's find the sale for the two weeks together and their difference.

Explanation:

Amount of books sold in the first week = Rs. 2,85,891

Amount of books sold in the second week = Rs. 4,00,768

Total books sold in the two weeks = Amount of books sold in the first week + Amount of books sold in the second week

= Rs. 2,85,891 + Rs. 4,00,768 = Rs. 6,86,659

Hence, the total sale for the complete two weeks together was Rs. 6,86,659

Since, the amount Rs. 4,00,768, is greater than the amount Rs. 2,85,891 the sale of the second week was greater than that of the first week

The amount by which the sale of the second week exceeded the first week = Amount of books sold in the second week - Amount of books sold in the first week

= Rs. 4,00,768 - Rs. 2,85,891 = Rs. 1,14,877

Therefore, the amount of Rs. 1,14,877 more books were sold in the second week

Thus, the total sale of Kriti Bookstore for the complete two weeks together was Rs. 6,86,659 and the sale of the second week was greater than that of the first week by Rs. 1,14,877.
