Answer 1

Loss faced by the shopkeeper

Let us understand the situation in detail :-

Lady comes and buy groceries worth ₹350

She gives ₹2000 to the shopkeeper.

Since, the shopkeeper doesn't have change, therefore he went to another shopkeeper to get the change by replacing that ₹2000.

From those change only, the first shopkeeper keeps ₹350 by himself and returns ₹1650 to the lady and the lady goes back.

Now, the other shopkeeper comes and claims that ₹2000 note to be duplicate and hence takes back the real ₹2000 from the first shopkeeper.

Now, the first shopkeeper is left with that ₹2000 duplicate note.

So, the loss faced by the shopkeeper is of ₹2000 (other amount).
