Question

Given below is cost of a dog harness at two stores.



The harness at is costlier.

• A. Store I
• B. Store II
• C. Cannot be determined

Answer 1

The correct option is B Store II

The cost of harness at Store I is:
₹2,000 + 543

The cost of harness at Store II is:
₹2,000 + 558

As the number 2,000 is common for both the numbers, we compare 543 and 558.

Now, let us write these numbers in the place value chart.


Digits at hundreds place are equal.

So, we compare the digits at tens place to identify the greater number.


We can clearly see that the cost at Store II is greater than that at Store I.

Hence, the cost of harness at Store II is costlier.
