Question

A merchant had Rs 78,592 with her. She placed an order for purchasing 40 radio sets at Rs 1200 each. How much money will remain with her after the purchase?

Answer 1

$\text{Cost of the radio \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: = \: \: Rs 1200}$


$\text{Cost of 40 radios = 1200*40 \: \: \: \: \: \: = \: \: Rs 48,000}$


Now,


$\text{Total money with merchant \: \: \: \: \: \: = \: \: Rs 78,592}$


$\text{Money spent by her \: \: \: \: \: \:\: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: = \: \: Rs 48,000}$


________________________________________

$\text{Money left with her \: \: \: \: \: \:\: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: = \: \: Rs 30,592}$

$\textbf{Therefore, Rs 30,592 will remain with her after the purchase.}$

Answer 2

Answer:

30592 Rs.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that a merchant had 78592 Rs. with her.

Now, 40 radio sets at 1200 Rs. each, she placed that order for purchasing.  

Hence, to purchase that order she had to spend (40×1200) Rs. =48000 Rs. that will be deducted from her original money.

Therefore, after purchasing, an amount of (78592- 48000) Rs. =30592 Rs. will be left with her. (Answer)
