Solution

Money with Isha = Rs 1,000
Cost of 1 litre of petrol = Rs 47
Number of litres of petrol Isha can buy = 1000 ÷ 47

Working:

Quotient = 21
Remainder = 13
Thus, Isha can buy 21 litres of petrol with Rs 1,000.

Cost of 1 litre of petrol in my city = Rs 50
Number of litres of petrol Isha can buy from Rs 1,000 = 1000 ÷ 50
= 20
Working:

Thus, Isha can buy 20 litres of petrol in my city.
