Dear student
$$\begin{gathered} \mathrm{Total}\mathrm{money}\mathrm{Kiram}\mathrm{has}=\mathrm{Rs}1950.50 \\ \mathrm{Money}\mathrm{spent}\mathrm{on}\mathrm{shopping}=\mathrm{Rs}1440.25 \\ \mathrm{Money}\mathrm{left}\mathrm{with}\mathrm{Kiran}=\mathrm{Rs}\left(1950.50-1440.25\right)=\mathrm{Rs}510.25 \\ \mathrm{Since}\mathrm{Rs}510.25<\mathrm{Rs}600 \\ \mathrm{So},\mathrm{she}\mathrm{will}\mathrm{not}\mathrm{be}\mathrm{able}\mathrm{to}\mathrm{pay}\mathrm{the}\mathrm{water}\mathrm{bill} \\ \mathrm{as}\mathrm{she}\mathrm{is}\mathrm{Rs}\left(600-510.25\right)=\mathrm{Rs}89.75\mathrm{short} \end{gathered}$$
