Question

Amar and Anita spent $₹75,550$ on food, $₹1,20,690$ on school fees and bus fees, and $₹2,25,300$ on other expenses. What was their total expenditure $?$ If they had $₹5,00,000$ with them, find the balance amount with them.

Answer 1

Amount spent on food $=₹75,550$

Amount spent on school fees and bus fees $=₹1,20,690$

Amount spent on other expenses $=₹2,25,300$

The total expenditure $=₹75,550+₹1,20,690+₹2,25,300$

$=₹4,21,540$ $$\begin{gathered} 75,550 \\ +1,20,690 \\ +2,25,300 \\ ------ \\ 4,21,540 \end{gathered}$$

Hence, the total expenditure is $₹4,21,540$

The amount they have with them is $=₹5,00,000$

The balance amount with them $=₹5,00,000-₹4,21,540$

$=₹78,460$ $$\begin{gathered} 5,00,000 \\ -4,21,540 \\ ------ \\ 78,460 \end{gathered}$$

Hence, the balance amount with them is $₹78,460$.
