1) Sandesh wants to buy a laptop worth Rs 27,459. He has Rs 24,575, so how much more will he need to buy the laptop?
2) In the first year, a sugar factory produced 2,637,356 bags of sugar. In the second year, 3,492,978 bags of sugar were produced. How many more bags of sugar did the factory produce in the second year than the first year?
Answer (1)
Let's solve these two problems one by one.
Sandesh's Laptop Purchase:
Sandesh wants to buy a laptop that costs Rs 27,459. He currently has Rs 24,575. To find out how much more money he needs, we simply subtract the amount he has from the total cost of the laptop.
Let's calculate:
Amount Sandesh needs = Total cost of the laptop − Amount Sandesh has
= 27 , 459 − 24 , 575
= 2 , 884
So, Sandesh needs Rs 2,884 more to buy the laptop.
**Sugar Factory Production: **
In the first year, the sugar factory produced 2,637,356 bags of sugar. In the second year, it produced 3,492,978 bags.
To find out how many more bags were produced in the second year than in the first year, we subtract the number of bags produced in the first year from those produced in the second year.
Let's calculate:
Additional bags produced in the second year = Bags in second year − Bags in first year
= 3 , 492 , 978 − 2 , 637 , 356
= 855 , 622
Therefore, the factory produced 855,622 more bags of sugar in the second year compared to the first year.
In summary, Sandesh needs Rs 2,884 more for the laptop, and the factory produced 855,622 more bags of sugar in the second year than in the first year.
