Answer 1

The cost of the 5 pencils would be Rs 60. The shopkeeper returned 40 rupees back since she gave him 100 Rs.

Explanation:

1. You times the pencils by the price.

2. 5x12=60 That is the cost of the 5 pencils.

3. You then subtract the cost of the pencils (60) from the amount Subi gave to the shopkeeper.

4. 100-60=40

5. Since the price of the pencils is 60 the shopkeeper would return Rs 40.
