Solution
Khushi has 36 apples and 60 bananas
- Khushi can invite guests = HCF(36, 60) = 12
So, she can invite at most 12 guests. - Each guest gets bananas = `60/12` = 5 bananas
Each guest get apples = `36/12` = 3 apples -
- If Khushi adds 42 mangoes
She can invite guests = HCF (36, 60, 42) = 6
OR - Total amount spent = 5 × (60) + 15 × (36) + (42) × (20)
= 300 + 540 + 840
= ₹ 1680
- If Khushi adds 42 mangoes
