The rate of various grocery items are given below:- 1 kg sugar - Rs. 50 2 kg rice - Rs. 120 500-gram pulses - Rs. 90 1-litre oil - Rs.130 Rashmi buys 1 kg of each item. How much would she be required to pay to the shopkeeper? Correct Answer Rs. 420

Given:

The rate of grocery items are:

1 kg sugar - Rs. 50

2 kg rice - Rs.1 20

500gram pulses - Rs. 90

1 liter oil - Rs. 130

Calculation:

Cost of 1 kg rice = Rs. 120/2 = Rs. 60

Cost of 1 kg pulses = Rs. 90 × 2 = Rs. 180

Amount paid to shopkeeper = 50 + 60 + 180 + 130 = Rs. 420

∴ Rashmi paid Rs. 420 to the shopkeeper.
