Question

Tanvi bought a notebook of ₹ 8 3/4and a pen for ₹ 10 2/5. If she gives the shopkeeper a 50 rupee note, how much money will the shopkeeper return?

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Total money spent on notebook and pen =

$8 \frac{3}{4} + 10 \frac{2}{5}$

$\frac{35}{4} + \frac{52}{5}$

$\frac{175 + 208}{20}$

$= \frac{383}{20}$

Total money gave to shopkeeper= ₹50

Notebook and pen= ₹383/20

The shopkeeper return =

$50 - \frac{383}{20}$

$\frac{1000 - 383}{20}$

$= \: \: \frac{617}{20}$

30 whole 17/20
