Question

Atul bought chocolates for Rs 60, a packet of chips for Rs 20 and an ice cream for Rs 18. Find the amount spent by him.

Answer 1

Hint: First, we will find the amount spent by him on chocolates, then we will find the amount spent by him on chips and then we will find the amount spent by him on ice cream and then, to find the total amount spent by him, we will add the amount spent by him on chocolates, amount spent by him on chips and amount spent by him on ice cream. In this way, we can find the total amount spent by Atul.

Complete step by step answer:
It is given in the question that Atul bought chocolates for Rs 60.
Thus, the amount spent by him on chocolates = 60.
It is also given in the question that he bought a packet of chips for Rs 20.
Thus, the amount spent by him on a packet of chips = 20.
Atul also bought an ice cream for Rs 18.
Thus, the amount spent by him on ice cream = 18.
Now, the total amount spent by him = amount spent by him on chocolates + amount spent by him on chips + amount spent by him on ice cream.
Total amount spent by him = 60 + 20 + 18
Therefore, total amount spent by him = 98
Thus, the total amount spent by Atul is Rs 98.

Note: This is a relatively simple question and all students have to do is add the amount. Other such examples are as follows. In a basket there are 5 apples, 2 oranges and 3 mangoes and we are asked to find the total number of fruits in the basket. It can be found by adding the number of apples, number of oranges and number of mangoes. Thus, the total number of fruits are (5 + 2 + 3 = 10).
