Answer:
Irene used to spend 3.25Rs. both ways (going and coming)
Therefore, she used to spend 3.25Rs. x 2 = 6.5Rs. per day.
If she had used the bus, then she would have spent 6.5Rs. x 17 = 110.5Rs. in 17 days.
So, she saved 110.5Rs.

Answer:
Irene spends Rs.3.25 for each way.
Therefore, total amt. spent on travel (to and fro)
= 3.25 × 2 = Rs.6.50
She discontinued taking the bus to work in order to save money.
Therefore, every day she saves Rs.6.50.
Amt. saved after 17 days of work = 17 × 6.5 = Rs.110.50
