1. Answer:

   [tex]\sf{\circ\;Total\;amount\;spend\;by\;Mrs.\;Khosla\;was\;Rs.\;91\dfrac{1}{2}.}[/tex]

   Step-by-step explanation:

   Given that:

   • Mrs. Khosla purchased 2 1/2 kg of mangoes at the rate of ₹25 3/4 per kg.

   • She also bought 1 3/4 kg of grapes at the rate of ₹15 1/2 per kg.

   To Find:

   • Total money spent by Mrs Khosla.

   Solution:

   Finding total money spent in total:

   [tex]\sf{Rate\;of\;mangoes \;per\; kg=25\dfrac{3}{4}=Rs.\;\dfrac{103}{4}}[/tex]

   [tex]\sf{Amount\;of\;mangoes\;purchased=2\dfrac{1}{2}=\dfrac{5}{2}\;kg}[/tex]

   [tex]\bf{Amount\;spent\;on\;mangoes=Rs.\left(\dfrac{5}{2}\times\dfrac{103}{4}\right)}[/tex]

   [tex]\sf{Rate\;of\;grapes\;per\; kg=15\dfrac{1}{2}=Rs.\;\dfrac{31}{2}}[/tex]

   [tex]\sf{Amount\;of\;mangoes\;purchased=1\dfrac{3}{4}=\dfrac{7}{4}\;kg}[/tex]

   [tex]\bf{Amount\;spent\;on\;grapes=Rs.\left(\dfrac{7}{4}\times\dfrac{31}{2}\right)}[/tex]

   ————————————–

   [tex]\sf{Amount\;apent\;altogether=\left(\dfrac{7}{4}\times\dfrac{31}{2}\right)+\left(\dfrac{5}{2}\times\dfrac{103}{4}\right)}[/tex]

   [tex]\sf{=\dfrac{217}{8}+\dfrac{515}{8}}[/tex]

   [tex]\sf{=\dfrac{732}{8}}[/tex]

   [tex]\sf{=91\dfrac{4}{8}}[/tex]

   [tex]\sf{=91\dfrac{1}{2}}[/tex]

   Hence,

   [tex]\sf{\circ\;Total\;amount\;spend\;was\;}\bf{Rs.\;91\dfrac{1}{2}.}[/tex]
