Money left with Sudha

⛤ $\textsf{\underline{\underline{Solution :}}}$

First We need to find money left with Geeta.

$\implies$ 932 - 448

$\implies$ 484

Money left with Geeta = Rs.484

Money left with Sudha (Without the price of dress)

$\implies$ 738 - 298

$\implies$ 440

Money left with Sudha = Rs.440 (Without the price of dress)

As Sudha brings a dress costs half of which Geeta is left with. Half of 484

$\implies$ 484 ÷ 2

$\implies$ 242

Cost of the dress = Rs.242

We need to subtract Rs. 242 from money Sudha is left with.

$\implies$ 440 - 242

$\implies$ 198

$\therefore$ Money left with Sudha is Rs.198.

Answer 2

Money which is left with geeta = 932-448

= 484

half it 484÷2 = 242

money left with Sudha =

= 738-(298+242)

= 738-540

= 198

Sudha had 198 rupees left.
