Here are the steps:
Number of adults=4(Mother,Father,Raghav and his twin brother)

Number of children under 12 years of age=2(his two sisters)

Thus,

total charge=(9*4)+(4*2)

=36+8

=44

Hope it helped!

nidhiramy: thank u so much

tinkertweet: ur welcome!

Since father and mother are adults'
fee for father and mother = 2×9 = Rs. 18

raghav and his brother are both 14 years old. They are more than 12. So
fee for raghav and his brother = 2×9 = Rs. 18

Both his sisters are less than 12,
fee for his sisters = 2×4 = Rs. 8

Total charge = 18+18+8 = Rs.44

shalinigayathri: It has mentioned that for adults it cost Rs.9. So for raghav's father and mother's admission fee is 2*9= Rs.18 .

shalinigayathri: Then for raghav and his twin brother it cost 2*9= Rs 18.

shalinigayathri: Then for raghavs sister since they are less than 12 it costs 4*2=8.

shalinigayathri: Then for raghavs sister since they are less than 12 it costs 4*2=8

shalinigayathri: Then totlly it costs18+18+8=44
