Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume,

a : 2000 rs loss = 350 rs worth grocery + he returned the change 1650 rs, at the end he had 350 rs with him

b : 1650 rs loss = 350 rs he already have + additionally he added 1650 rs from pocket and gave to shop keeper 2000 rs

Let's calculate how money he actually got loss is 350 rs grocery value + returned 1650 + 1650 rs = 3650 rs
