Question

Andy has ₹ x in his pocket and he spent ₹ 250 on his hair cut and ₹ 115 on his face wash. The amount left with him is ₹ 1175. Find the value of x.

Answer 1

Amount Andy has = ₹ x

Total amount spent by him = ₹ 250 + ₹115 = ₹ 365

Total amount left = ₹ 1175

Total amount left = Amount Andy has -Total amount spent by him

$\Rightarrow$ 1175 = x - 365
$\Rightarrow$ 1175 + 365 = x
$\Rightarrow$ 1175 + 365 = x
$\Rightarrow$ 1540 = x
i.e., x = ₹ 1540

So, the value of x is ₹ 1540.
