Kunal purchased a notebook for Rs 19.75, a pencil for Rs 3.85 and a pen for Rs 8.35 from a book shop. He gave a 50-rupee note to the shopkeeper. What amount did he get back?

Answer 1

Cost of the notebook = Rs 19.75
Cost of the pencil = Rs 3.85
Cost of the pen = + Rs 8.35
Total cost payable = Rs 31.95

Total money paid = Rs 50.00
Total money spent = $-$Rs 31.95

Thus, Kunal got back Rs 18.05 from the shopkeeper.
