1. Rs. 550
2. Rs. 467
3. Rs. 517
4. Rs. 525

Answer 1

Correct Answer - Option 3 : Rs. 517

 Given:

The cost price of 7 pens at the rate of 8 each,

The cost price of 5 books at the rate of Rs. 74 each,

The cost price of 7 maps at the rate of Rs. 5 each

And the cost price of 8 notebooks at the rate of Rs 7 each.

Calculation:

The cost price of 7 pens = 7 × 8 = 56

The cost price of 5 books  = 74 × 5 = 370

The cost price of 7 maps = 5 × 7 = 35

The cost price of 8 notebooks  = 8 × 7 = 56

According to the question,

Sum of total money = 56 + 370 + 35 + 56 = 517

∴ Pappu has to pay Rs. 517 to the shopkeeper.
