                              2 5 

                             × 5 

                           1 2 5 p

                      = Rs. 1.25


5. Multiply Rs. 126 × Rs. 6.

                                   1  3

                         = Rs. 56.80


Word problems on Multiplication of Money:

1. One bottle of jam cost Rs. 180.25. Find the cost of 7 such bottles.

Solution:

Cost of 1 bottle = Rs.180.25

Cost of 7 bottle = Rs.180.25 × 7

                   Rs. 180.25

                             × 7 

                   Rs. 1261.75


Therefore, cost of 7 bottle = Rs. 1261.75


2. Robert bought 8 notebooks each costing Rs. 49.50.How much money did he pay?
