Example 6:  Add ` 12 and 35 p, and ` 15 and 70 p.                             Top Tip

            Solution:     Step 1:  Add the paise.                    p            If in addition of paise, the
                                                                  `
                                    35 + 70 = 105                12  35          sum is more than 100 paise,
                                                                                   1 is carried over to the
                                    Since 100 p = ` 1,         +  15  70              rupees column.

                                    105 p = 100 p + 5 p              105

                                    = ` 1 + 5 p
                                      Carry over 1 to the rupee column.                                  ` 1   p

                          Step 2:  Add the rupees.                                                      12  35
                                    1 + 12 + 15 = 28                                                  +  15  70

                          So, ` 12 and 35 p + ` 15 and 70 p = ` 28 and 05 p = ` 28.05.                  28  05


            Subtraction of Rupees and Paise

            To subtract rupees and paise, we write rupees in one column and paise in the other column.

            Then we subtract them like any other number.                                  Top Tip
            Example 7:  Subtract ` 2.40 from ` 3.50.
                                                                                   We can also subtract by
            Solution:     Step 1:  Subtract the paise.             `    p          putting a dot between
                                    50 – 40 = 10                   3  50           rupees and paise as
                                                                                   shown.
                          Step 2:  Subtract the rupees.        –  2  40                     ` 3.50

                                    3 – 2 = 1                      1  10                  – ` 2.40
                          So, ` 3.50 – ` 2.40 = ` 1.10.                                     ` 1.10



            Example 8:  Subtract ` 80.55 from ` 110.90.

            Solution:           Step 1                          Step 2
                                  `    p                         `    p

                                      8  10                    0  11  8  10
                                110  90                         110  90
                              –   80  55                      –   80  55

                                      35                          30  35

                          So, ` 110.90 – ` 80.55 = ` 30.35.
