Question

A packet of milk costs ₹53. Ana buys a packet of milk everyday. She visits her parents on Saturday and Sunday. On these days she doesn't buy any packet of milk. How much money she would spend on milk in the month of May that starts with a Sunday? (3 marks)

Answer 1

Solution:
Number of days in a month = 31
Number of Saturday and Sunday in May that starts with a Sunday = 9
(1.5 marks)

Number of days excluding Saturday and Sunday = 31 - 9
= 22
(0.5 marks)

Amount paid for 22 days = 22 × ₹53 = ₹1166
(1 mark)
