Answer:

Total amount received by Mrs Khanna will be 182.5 Rs.

Explanation:

Cost of the potatoes = 25 Rs per kg

Cost of
2(1)/(2) kg potatoes = Weight of the potatoes × Per kg cost of the potatoes

= 2.5 × 25

= 62.5 Rs

Cost of onions = 30 Rs per kg

Cost of 3 kg onions = 3 × 30

= 90 Rs

Per kg cost of Peas = 70 Rs

Cost of
1(1)/(2) kg Peas = 1.5 × 70

= 105 Rs

Per kg cost of Carrots = 40 Rs

Cost of
1(1)/(2) kg Carrots = 1.5 × 40

= 60 Rs

Total amount of the vegetables = 62.5 + 90 + 105 + 60

= 317.5 Rs

Since she gave a note of 500 Rs

Balance amount she got = 500 - 317.5

= 182.5 Rs

Therefore, total amount received by Mrs Khanna will be 182.5 Rs.
