Answer 1

Forming the algebraic expression:

Given :

Total money $=Rsx$

Money spent on grocery $=$$Rs800$

Money spent on clothes $=$$Rs600$

Money spent on education $=$$Rs500$

She received a gift of $=$ $Rs300$

According to the question,

Money left with Akshay :

$$\begin{gathered} =x-(800+600+500)+300 \\ =Rs(x-1900+300) \\ =Rs(x-1600) \end{gathered}$$

Therefore, money left with Akshay is $Rs(x-1600)$
