📌 Understanding the Problem
The image shows two shelves:
-
Top shelf (Adam’s purchases): 4 items
-
Bottom shelf (Moris’s purchases): 4 items
We need to:
1. List each person’s items and their prices.
2. Calculate the total bill for each.
3. Compare the totals to see whose bill is more and by how much.

##
✔ Step 1: Identify Adam’s Items (Top Shelf)
From left to right on the top shelf:
1.
Book → Rs 15
2.
Lunchbox with food → Rs 22
3.
Mango → Rs 17
4.
Pencil → Rs 5
> *Note: Even though some items like “book” or “mango” may not be toys, the problem says “Adam bought all toys from the top shelf”, so we assume these are considered “toys” in this context.*

##
✔ Step 2: Identify Moris’s Items (Bottom Shelf)
From left to right on the bottom shelf:
1.
Cup of coffee → Rs 11
2.
Dice → Rs 31
3.
Spool of thread → Rs 18
4.
Potted flowers → Rs 14
> Again, even if not traditional toys, we follow the instruction: “Moris bought all the toys from the bottom shelf.”

✔ Step 3: Make Adam’s Bill
| Items | Amount (Rs) |
|--------------------|-------------|
| Book | 15 |
| Lunchbox | 22 |
| Mango | 17 |
| Pencil | 5 |
|
Total |
59 |
> Calculation: 15 + 22 = 37; 37 + 17 = 54; 54 + 5 =
59

##
✔ Step 4: Make Moris’s Bill
| Items | Amount (Rs) |
|--------------------|-------------|
| Cup of coffee | 11 |
| Dice | 31 |
| Spool of thread | 18 |
| Potted flowers | 14 |
|
Total |
74 |
> Calculation: 11 + 31 = 42; 42 + 18 = 60; 60 + 14 =
74
---
##
✔ Step 5: Compare the Bills
- Adam’s total =
Rs 59
- Moris’s total =
Rs 74
→
Moris’s bill is more.
Difference = 74 - 59 =
Rs 15
