Question

Rashmi has a sum of Rs. $$x$$. She spent Rs. $$2000$$ on grocery, Rs. $$600$$ on clothes and Rs. $$400$$ on education and received Rs. $$200$$ as a gift. How much money (in Rs. ) is left with her?

Answer 1

Hint:
In this question, it is given that Rashmi has $$x$$. with her, and then she spent a few Rs also received some. On the basis of equations which are given in word form we can form the equation. After solving the equation we can get the correct answer.

Complete step by step solution:
So it is given that rashmi has Rs. $$x$$
She spent Rs $$2000$$ on grocery, mean she loses $$2000$$ from her total amount,
Now rashmi has Rs. $$x - 2000$$ with her.
Then rashmi spent Rs. $$600$$ on cloths, mean she loses $$600$$ from her total amount,
Now rashmi has Rs. $$x - 2000 - 600 = x - 2600$$ with her.
Then rashmi spent Rs. $$400$$ on education, mean she loses $$400$$ from her total amount,
Now rashmi has Rs. $$x - 2600 - 400 = x - 3000$$ with her.
Then rashmi receive Rs. $$200$$ as a gift, mean she gain $$200$$ in her total amount,
Now rashmi has Rs. $$x - 3000 + 200 = x - 2800$$ with her.

So, rashmi has Rs. $$x - 2800$$ left with her.

Note:
In this type of problem, we need to analyse the equation which is written in word form, after analysing the equation we can solve the problem. Even in this problem, we analyse the equation and then get the correct answer.
