Radhika’s mother gave her Rs.10.50 and her father gave her Rs.15.80. Find the total amount given to Radhika by the parents.

Answer 1

Money given by Radhika's mother = Rs.10.50
Money given by Radhika's father = Rs.15.80

$\begin{array}{cccccccc}\text{Hundreds}& \text{Tens}& \text{Ones}& .& \text{Tenths}& \text{Hundredths}& \text{Thousandths}& \\ 0& 1& 0& .& 5& 0& 0& \\ 0& 1& 5& .& 8& 0& 0& \\ +& & & & & & & \\ 0& 2& 6& .& 3& 0& 0& =26.30\end{array}$

Therefore, total money received by Radhika = Rs.10.50 + Rs.15.80 = Rs.26.30
