Options

D. Rs 17.19

Answer

To find out how much more money Shruti gets than Shashank, we need to subtract Shashank's pocket money from Shruti's pocket money. Here’s the step-by-step solution:

### Step 1: Write down the amounts
- Shashank's pocket money = Rs 150.75
- Shruti's pocket money = Rs 169.89

### Step 2: Set up the subtraction
We need to find the difference:
\[ \text{Difference} = \text{Shruti's amount} - \text{Shashank's amount} \]
So, we will calculate:
\[ 169.89 - 150.75 \]

### Step 3: Align the numbers for subtraction
```
169.89
- 150.75
```

### Step 4: Subtract the amounts
1. Start from the rightmost digit (the hundredths place):
- \( 9 - 5 = 4 \) (hundredths)

2. Move to the tenths place:
- \( 8 - 7 = 1 \) (tenths)

3. Move to the units place:
- \( 9 - 0 = 9 \) (units)

4. Move to the tens place:
- \( 6 - 5 = 1 \) (tens)

5. Finally, move to the hundreds place:
- \( 1 - 1 = 0 \) (hundreds)

Putting it all together, we have:
```
169.89
- 150.75
_________
19.14
```

### Step 5: Write the final answer
The difference is Rs 19.14. Therefore, Shruti gets Rs 19.14 more than Shashank.

### Final Answer:
Shruti gets Rs 19.14 more than Shashank.
