Question

26. Lata spent Rs 19.50 for buying a pen and Rs 12.50 for one pencil. How much money
did she spend?

Answer 1

Given

• Amount spent on buying pen = Rs 19.50 /-
• Amount spent on buying pencil = Rs 12.50 /-

To find

• Total amount spent

Solution

• Total amount spent = Pen's amount + Pencil's amount
• Total amount spent = Rs 19.50 + Rs 12.50 /-
• Total amount spent = Rs 32 /-

Hence, the total amount spent by Lata is Rs 32 /-

Verification

• Pen's cost = Total cost - Pencil's cost
• 19.50 = 32 - 12.50
• 19.50 = 19.50
• 19.5 = 19.5
• Pencil's cost = Total cost - Pen's cost
• 12.50 = 32 - 19.50
• 12.50 = 12.50
• 12.5 = 12.5

In both the cases L.H.S = R.H.S
