First of all Convert mixed fraction into simple fraction :-
Cost of 41/2 kg rice = Rs 69/4
Cost of 57/4 kg sugar = Rs 27/2
=> Total Cost or Total money spent = Cost of rice + Cost of sugar
=> Total Cost = Rs (69/4 + 27/2)
=> Total Cost = Rs ( 69 + 54/4)
=> Total Cost = Rs 123/4
Hence, total money spent by Ankita is Rs 123/4.

Answer:
Rs. 538.125
Step-by-step explanation:
Total amount of rice = 20¼ kg = 20.25
Given cost of 1 kg rice = Rs. 17¼ = 17.25
Total cost of rice = 17.25×20.25= 349.3125
Total amount of sugar = 14¼ kg = 14.25
Given cost of 1 kg sugar = Rs. 13.25
Total cost of sugar = Rs. 188.8125
Total amount spent by Anita = 188.8125+349.3125 = Rs. 538.125
