Question

I bought a pen for ₹5.50 and a notebook for ₹20.75 and paid the shopkeeper ₹30. What was the amount returned by the shopkeeper?

• A. ₹1.75
• B. ₹2.75
• C. ₹3.75
• D. ₹4.75

Answer 1

The correct option is C

₹3.75

Amount paid = ₹30

Total bill = ₹5.50 + ₹20.75
$1$
05.50
+ 20.75
26.25
So, total bill = ₹26.25

Amount returned by shopkeeper
= ₹30 - ₹26.25
30.00
- 26.25
03.75

Amount returned = ₹3.75
