The final cost of chocolate syrup is .

• A. ₹15,835
• B. ₹65,407
• C. ₹72,365

Answer 1

The correct option is B ₹65,407

Cost of chocolate syrup = ₹75,815
Discount provided = ₹10,408

To find out the final cost of chocolate syrup, we will subtract ₹10,408 from ₹75,815.

Let us fill the numbers in the place value chart first.


We cannot subtract bigger numbers from smaller numbers.

So, we regroup 5 at ones places to 15 using the next digit 1 at the tens place.

15 - 8 = 7

Doing this process for the subsequent digits, we get:


∴ 75815 - 10408 = 65407

Hence, the final cost of chocolate syrup is ₹65,407.
