Answer 1

Answer:

Money left  with Mohan is Rs. 19200 - (20x + 25y + 23z)

Step-by-step explanation:

Mohan's initial amount of money is Rs.19200

He purchased below items:

x kg of potatoes at a cost of Rs.20 per kg.

So, Total cost of potatoes he purchased will be 20x

y kg of tomatoes at a cost of Rs.25 per kg.

So, Total cost of tomatoes he purchased will be 25y

z kg of onions at a cost of Rs.23 per kg.

So, Total cost of onions he purchased will be 23z.

Total amount spent = 20x + 25y + 23z

Therefore,

Remaining amount left with Mohan = Initial amount - Amount spent on purchase.

Money left = 19200 - (20x + 25y + 23z)
