Question. 76

Leela contributed Rs y towards the Prime Minister’s Relief Fund. Leela is now left with Rs (y + 10000).

Answer:

Amount left with Leela is Rs 10,000 more than the amount she contributed towards Prime Minister’s Relief fund.

Detailed Answer with Explanation:

Step 1: Write what each term means.

Contribution by Leela: ( y , ext{rupees} )

Money left with Leela: ( y + 10000 , ext{rupees} )

Step 2: Compare the two amounts.

Find the difference between money left and money contributed.

( (y + 10000) - y )

Step 3: Simplify the difference.

( (y + 10000) - y = 10000 )

Conclusion:

The money left is ( 10000 ) rupees more than the contribution.

So, ( ext{Left amount} = ext{Contribution} + 10000 ).
