Answer 2

$\large {\green {\sf {\underline {\underline {Step-by-step \: Explanation}}}:-}}$

Total money spent = 10 crores

(i) Amount spent on roads = 10% of 10 crores

$= \frac{10}{100} \times 10 \\ = 1crore$

Hence, the amount spent in roads is 1 crore.

$(ii) \: \frac{Amount \: spent \: on \: education}{Amount \: spent \: on \: roads} = \frac{25}{10} = 1 \: crore$

Therefore, the amount spent on education is 2.5 times the amount spent on roads.

$(iii) \: \frac{Amount \: spent \: on \: roads \: + \: Amount \: spent \: on \: public \: welfare}{ Total \: expenditure } \\ \\ = \frac{10\% \: of \: 10 \: crores \: + \: 20\% \: of \: 10 \: crores}{10 \: crores} \\ \\ = \frac{ \frac{10}{100} \times 10 + \frac{20}{100} \times 10 }{10} \\ \\ = \frac{1 + 2}{10} = \frac{3}{10}$
