Question

Rida has Rs 5946 in her wallet. She wants to purchase two dresses costing Rs 2565 and Rs 2750. Estimate the total cost of two dresses. Has she enough money to purchase both the dresses?​

Answer 1

Rida has enough money to purchase both dresses, costing Rs 2565 and Rs 2750, since she has Rs 5946 in total, which is more than the combined cost of the dresses, leaving her with Rs 631 after the purchase.

Step-by-step explanation:

To answer the question about whether Rida has enough money to purchase both dresses, we must first estimate the total cost of the two dresses and then compare it to the amount of money she has. The cost of the first dress is Rs 2565 and the cost of the second dress is Rs 2750.

Let's calculate the total estimated cost:

1. Cost of Dress 1: Rs 2565
2. Cost of Dress 2: Rs 2750
3. Total Cost: Rs 2565 + Rs 2750 = Rs 5315

Now we compare the total cost with the amount Rida has:

• Amount Rida has: Rs 5946
• Total Cost of Dresses: Rs 5315
• Amount remaining after purchase: Rs 5946 - Rs 5315 = Rs 631

Since Rida has Rs 5946 and the total cost of the dresses is Rs 5315, she does have enough money to purchase both dresses and will have Rs 631 left after the purchase.
