The line chart given below shows the monthly petrol consumption (in litres) by 6 different cars CR1, CR2, CR3, CR4, CR5 and CR6.
The price of petrol is Rs. 95 per litre. What is the total monthly expenditure (in Rs.) on petrol for cars CR4, CR5 and CR6 together?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
Given:
CR4 = 60 liters, CR5 = 76 liters, CR6 = 75 liters
Price of petrol = ₹95/liter
According to the formula:
Total Expenditure = Total Consumption × Price
Total Consumption = 60 + 76 + 75 = 211 liters
Total Expenditure = 211 × 95
= 211 × (100 − 5)
= 21100 − 1055
= ₹20,045
