Solution

Since the amount withdrawn is represented by a negative integer, the amount deposited will be represented by a positive integer.

Amount deposited = Rs 2000

Amount withdrawn = −Rs 1642

Balance in Mohan’s account = Money deposited + Money withdrawn

= 2000 + (−1642) = 2000 − 1642 = 358

Therefore, balance in Mohan’s account after withdrawal is Rs 358.
