Question 33

Ali had ₹ 320. He spent $$\frac{3}{4}$$ of it to buy a watch. Of the remainder, he used $$\frac{1}{8}$$ of it to buy a pen. How much money is left?

Solution

Money spent to buy a watch = $$\frac{3}{4}\times320$$ = ₹ 240

Remaining Amount = 320 - 240 = ₹ 80

Money spent to buy a pen = $$\frac{1}{8}\times80$$ = ₹ 10

$$\therefore\ $$Money left with Ali after buying a watch and a pen = 320 - 240 -10 = ₹ 70

Hence, the correct answer is Option A
