Answer 1

Answer:

she received 15 rupees from her cousin

Step-by-step explanation:

total there are 20 chocolates

if she delivers chocolate she get 3rupees for every chocolate

also a fine of 6rupees for every chocolate she eat

so she eats 5 chocolates

chocolates she delivered is 20-5=15

fine=5*6=30

3rupees for every chocolate =15*3=45

so she received 45-30=15$
