Rahul bought a pencil for Rs. 73.50, a pen for Rs. 68.75 and a paint box for Rs. 112.35. He gave Rs. 500 to the shopkeeper and got back Rs. 345.40. He, however, returned Rs. 100 back to the shopkeeper. Was Rahul correct in returning Rs. 100 to the shopkeeper?

Answer:

Yes he was correct in returning the 100

Explanation:

Pen 68.75

Pencil 73.50

Paint box 112.35

Add all together, you get 254.60

If he paid 500 to the shopkeeper, he will collect (500.00-254.60) =245.40

If the shopkeeper gave him 345.40, then he had an excess and should give back the 100
