उत्तर
The 5 different ways are given below:
-
Rahul can buy five stamps of Rs 5 each in order to buy stamps of Rs 25 for his parcel. Cost of 1 stamp = Rs 5 Cost of 5 stamps = Rs 5 × 5 = Rs 25
- Rahul can buy two stamps of Rs 10 each and one stamp of Rs 5 in order to buy stamps of Rs 25 for his parcel. Cost of two stamps of Rs 10 each = Rs 10 × 2 = Rs 20 Total cost of two stamps of Rs 10 each and one stamp of Rs 5 = Rs 20 + Rs 5 = Rs 25
- Rahul can buy ten stamps of Rs 2 each and one stamp of Rs 5 in order to buy stamps of Rs 25 for his parcel.
Cost of ten stamps of Rs 2 each = Rs 2 × 10 = Rs 20 Total cost of ten stamps of Rs 2 each and one stamp of Rs 5 = Rs 20 + Rs 5 = Rs 25 - Rahul can buy three stamps of Rs 5 each and five stamps of Rs 2 each in order to buy stamps of Rs 25 for his parcel. Cost of three stamps of Rs 5 each = Rs 5 × 3 = Rs 15 Cost of five stamps of Rs 2 each = Rs 2 × 5 = Rs 10 Total cost of three stamps of Rs 5 each and five stamps of Rs 2 each = Rs 15 + Rs 10 = Rs 25
- Rahul can buy three stamps of Rs 5 each and one stamp of Rs 10 in order to buy stamps of Rs 25 for his parcel. Cost of three stamps of Rs 5 each = Rs 5 × 3 = Rs 15 Total cost of three stamps of Rs 5 each and one stamp of Rs 10 = Rs 15 + Rs 10 = Rs 25
