Question

Tomorrow is Teacher’s Day. Your class students give you Rs.200 and send you to the market to buy some sweets and biscuits to celebrate this day with your teachers. When you go to the shop, you find that the price of a sweet packet is Rs. 60, and a biscuit packet is Rs. 20. If you buy 2 sweets packets, how many biscuit packets can you buy ? How much should you pay ?

Answer 1

If we buy 2 sweet packets: 

The cost of two sweet packets = 2 × 60 = 120 

Remaining Amount = 200 – 120 = 80

No. of Biscuit packets we can buy = \(\frac{80}{20}\) = 4

Total Amount we paid = 200
