(e) A company sells 1 litre of packed water for Rs 12. A shopkeeper buys 240 litres of packed water. How much does he pay?

Answer 1

(a)
Money earned by Sukhi in 1 day = Rs 98
∴ Money earned by Sukhi in 52 days = Rs 52 × 98
= Rs 5,096
Working:



Thus, Sukhi will earn Rs 5,096 in 52 days.

(b)
Money paid by Hariya in a month = Rs 2,750
It is given that Hariya has to pay Rs 2,750 every month for 2 years.
Number of months in 1 year = 12
∴ Number of months in 2 years = 2 × 12
= 24
Now,
Money to be paid by Hariya in 24 months = 24 × Rs 2750
= Rs 66,000

Working:



Thus, Hariya will pay Rs 66,000 in 2 years.

(c)
Earnings of Ratiram by selling 1 litre of milk = Rs 23
∴ Earnings of Ratiram by selling 13 litres of milk = Rs 23 × 13
= Rs 299

Working:



Thus, Ratiram earns Rs 299 after selling 13 litres of milk every day.

(d)
Earnings of the farmer by selling 1 litre of milk = Rs 11
It is given that the farmer sells 210 litres of milk in 1 month.
∴ Earnings of the farmer in 1 month = 210 × Rs 11
= Rs 2,310

Working:



Thus, the farmer earns Rs 2,310 in a month.

(e)
Selling price of 1 litre of packed water = Rs 12
It is given that the shopkeeper buys 240 litres of packed water.
∴ Money paid by the shopkeeper = 240 × Rs 12
= Rs 2,880

Working:



Thus, the shopkeeper pays Rs 2,880 for 240 litres of packed water.
