Example 2:Ramesh went to a cafeteria with his friends and asked for Menu. Given below is the menu of the cafeteria

Answer the following questions:

1. If they ordered two burgers, five French fries, and five scoops of ice creams, then find the total amount they paid.
2. If they divided the total amount among the five friends. Find the share of each friend.
3. If they gave Rs 1000 then, calculate the amount they will get back.

Solution:

1. The cost of one burger = Rs 75
   The cost of two burgers = Rs 75 × 2 = Rs 150
   The cost of one packet of French fries = Rs 90
   The cost of five packets of French fries = Rs 90 × 5 = Rs 450
   The cost of one scoop of ice cream = Rs 70
   The cost of five scoops of ice cream = Rs 70 × 5 = Rs 350
   The total cost = Rs 150 + Rs 450 + Rs 350 = Rs 950
2. Total cost = Rs 950

   Number of students = 5

   Share of each = Rs 950 ÷ 5

   

   Amount each friend should give = Rs 190

3. Amount given to the shopkeeper = Rs 1000

   Total cost = Rs 950

   Amount the shopkeeper will return = Rs 1000 – Rs 950 = Rs 50
