Question 14
Savitri has a sum of Rs.x. She spent Rs. 1000 on grocery, Rs. 500 on clothes and Rs. 400 on education and received Rs. 200 as a gift. How much money (in Rs.) is left with her?
(a) x−1700
(b) x−1900
(c) x+200
(d) x−2100
Option (a).
Given, total money with Savitri = Rs.x
Money spent on grocery = Rs. 1000
Money spent on clothes = Rs. 500
Money spent on education = Rs. 400
Money received as gift = Rs. 200
Then, money left with her = Rs. (x - 1000 - 500 - 400 + 200])
= Rs.( x - 1900 + 200)
= Rs. (x - 1700)
