Question 15.
During a festival sale, the cost of an object is ₹ 870 on which 20% is off. The same object is available at other shops for ₹ 975 with a discount of 623 %. Which is a better deal and by how much?
Solution:
The cost of the object = ₹ 870
Discount = 20% of ₹ 870 = 20100 × 870 = ₹ 174
Selling price = ₹ 870 – ₹ 174 = ₹ 696
The same object is available at other shop = ₹ 975

Selling price = ₹ 975 – ₹ 65 = ₹ 910
Since ₹ 910 > ₹ 696
Hence, deal at first shop is better and by ₹ 910 – ₹ 696 = ₹ 214

Question 16.
Simplify:
21.5 ÷ 5 – 15 of (20.5 – 5.5) + 0.5 × 8.5
Solution:
Using BODMAS rule, we have
21.5 ÷ 5 – 15 of (20.5 – 5.5) + 0.5 × 8.5
= 21.5 ÷ 5 – 15 of 15 + 0.5 × 8.5
= 21.5 × 15 – 15 × 15 + 0.5 × 8.5
= 4.3 – 3 + 4.25
= 4.3 + 4.25 – 3
= 8.55 – 3
= 5.55

Question 17.
Simplify:

Solution:
Using BODMAS rule, we have
2.3 – [1.89 – {3.6 – (2.7 – 0.77)}]
= 2.3 – [1.89 – {3.6 – 1.93}]
= 2.3 – [1.89 – 1.67]
= 2.3 – 0.22
= 2.08

Question 18.

Solution:
Using BODMAS rule, we have
