Answer 1

Given :

• Petrol filled on Monday = 40 L

• Petrol filled on Tuesday = 50 L

• Cost of petrol = Rs 44 / L

To Find :

• Total cost of the petrol

Solution :

Petrol filled on Monday = 40 L

Petrol filled on Monday = 50 L

Total petrol filled = 40 + 50 = 90 L

Now

Cost of 1 L petrol = Rs 44

Cost of 90 L petrol = 44 × 90 = 3960
