Step-by-step explanation:

Let the money in their pockets be Rs. x

Anushka gave 1/3 of Rs.x to Aarushi

Money now with Aarushi = x + x/3 = Rs. 4x/3

Aarushi paid half of what she had to the restaurant. That is half of Rs. 4x/3 = Rs. 2x/3

Money left with Aarushi = Rs. 1600 = Rs. 2x/3

2x/3 = 1600

2x = 4800

x = Rs. 2400

Sum gifted by Anushka = x/3 = Rs. 800
