Answer 1

The correct option is C Both got the same amount of pocket money.

Given,
Pocket money of Mikkel = Rs 795.3
Pocket money of Jonas = 11 $\$$

Let us convert dollars into rupees to compare their pocket money.
Given that 1 $\$$ = Rs.72.3
So, 11 $\$$ = Rs.$72.3\times 11$
= Rs. 795.3
Therefore, Jonas's pocket money in rupees = Rs 795.3
So, Jonas and Mikkel both got Rs. 795.3 as their pocket money.
