Answer 1

Solution:
We know that,
A small size pizza has been ordered for each child.
For 20 children 20 pizza would be required.
Cost of a small size pizza = ₹50
Number of pizza required = 20
Total cost of pizzas bought for children = ₹50 ×20 = ₹1000

A medium size pizza has been ordered for an adult.
Cost of a medium size pizza = ₹100
Number of adults = 14
Total cost of pizzas bought for 14 adults = ₹100 × 14 = ₹1400
( 1 mark )

Total money spent by Rasheed's mother = ₹1000 + ₹1400
= ₹2400
