Rina and Tina went to the market to buy half a dozen apples and two chocolates. What is the amount (in ₹) they spent if each apple costs ₹x and each chocolate costs ₹y?
₹(6x+2y)
Half a dozen of apples is 6 apples.
Cost of one apple = ₹x
Hence, the cost of 6 apples is ₹6x.
Cost of one chocolate = ₹y
Hence the cost for 2 chocolates is ₹2y.
So, the total amount spent in the market is ₹(6x+2y).
