The correct Answer is:
To find the amount Raj has, we need to calculate \(\frac{15}{28}\) of the cost of the radio, which is Rs. 560. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Cost of the Radio**: The cost of the radio is given as Rs. 560. 2. **Set Up the Calculation**: We need to find \(\frac{15}{28}\) of Rs. 560. This can be expressed mathematically as: \[ \text{Amount with Raj} = \frac{15}{28} \times 560 \] 3. **Perform the Multiplication**: First, we can multiply Rs. 560 by 15: \[ 15 \times 560 = 8400 \] 4. **Divide by 28**: Now, we will divide the result by 28: \[ \frac{8400}{28} \] 5. **Calculate the Division**: To simplify \(\frac{8400}{28}\), we can perform the division: \[ 8400 \div 28 = 300 \] 6. **Conclusion**: Therefore, the amount Raj has is Rs. 300. ### Final Answer: Raj has Rs. 300.
