Let’s solve each part step by step.
---
Problem 1:
You buy two lemons. Each lemon costs 35p.
So, total cost = 35p + 35p =
70p
You had 87p in your purse.
After paying 70p, you have left:
87p - 70p =
17p

Problem 2:
First, let’s find out how much money Lola has:
Lola has:
- Two £5 notes → £5 + £5 = £10
- Three £2 coins → £2 + £2 + £2 = £6
Total for Lola: £10 + £6 =
£16
Now Harry:
Harry has:
- One £10 note and one £5 note → £10 + £5 = £15
- One £2 coin and two £1 coins → £2 + £1 + £1 = £4
Total for Harry: £15 + £4 =
£19
Together (between them): £16 + £19 =
£35
How much more does Harry have than Lola?
£19 - £16 =
£3

Problem 3:
Ravi chooses crisps (30p) and a chocolate bar (50p).
Total cost: 30p + 50p =
80p
He pays with £1, which is 100p.
Change he gets: 100p - 80p =
20p
---
Final Answer:
1. Total for lemons:
70p, Left after payment:
17p
2. Together:
£35, Harry has
£3 more than Lola
3. Cost for Ravi:
80p, Change:
20p
