Question

Shaloo purchased three books at Rs. 37.66 each and five pens at 25.15 each, She gave the shopkeeper a five hundred rupee note. How much money did she get back from the shopkeeper.

Answer 1

Dear Student,

Cost of 1 book = Rs. 37.66
Total Cost of 3 Books = $3\times 37.66=Rs.112.98$
Cost of 1 Pen = Rs. 5.15
Total cost of 5 Pens = $5\times 5.15=Rs.25.75$

Money she got from the shopkeeper = $500-\left(112.98+25.75\right)=Rs.361.27$
