A merchant had ₹ 78,592 with her. She placed an order for purchasing 40 radio sets at ₹ 1200 each. How much money will remain with her after the purchase?

Solution:
We will be using the concept of whole numbers and the subtraction and multiplication of numbers to solve the given problem.

Total money available with the merchant = Rs.78,592

Total number of radio sets purchased = 40 radio sets

Price of one radio set = Rs.1200

We need to multiply 1200 by 40 to know the cost of 40 radio sets.

So, Price of 40 radio sets = Rs.1200 × 40 = Rs.48,000

Money left after the purchase = Rs.78592 – Rs.48000 = Rs.30,592

Rs.30592 is the amount of money left with the merchant after purchasing 40 radio sets.
