Math Problem Statement

A bag of apples costs rs20,Anjali bought 3 bags of apples and 5bags of oranges. If the cost of one bag of oranges is rs 15,what is the total cost of all the fruits?

Solution

To calculate the total cost of all the fruits Anjali bought, we proceed as follows:

1. Cost of apples:

  • Cost of 1 bag of apples = Rs. 20
  • Number of bags of apples bought = 3
  • Total cost of apples = 20×3=Rs.6020 \times 3 = Rs. 60

2. Cost of oranges:

  • Cost of 1 bag of oranges = Rs. 15
  • Number of bags of oranges bought = 5
  • Total cost of oranges = 15×5=Rs.7515 \times 5 = Rs. 75

3. Total cost of all fruits:

  • Total cost = Total cost of apples + Total cost of oranges
  • Total cost = 60+75=Rs.13560 + 75 = Rs. 135

Answer:

The total cost of all the fruits is Rs. 135.

Here are 5 related questions to deepen your understanding:

  1. If Anjali bought twice as many bags of apples and oranges, what would the total cost be?
  2. What is the average cost per bag of fruits purchased by Anjali?
  3. If the cost of a bag of apples increased by Rs. 5, how would that affect the total cost?
  4. How much would Anjali pay if she only bought oranges?
  5. If Anjali had a budget of Rs. 200, how much money would she have left after buying these fruits?
