The answer and explanation

• A lady buys grocery worth 350 so ₹350 is a loss for the shopkeeper.
• Cash given by lady is Rs 2000. The shopkeeper brings change and returns 350 to the lady. Therefore, Rs 2000 – Rs 350 = Rs 1650
• The shopkeeper makes loss worth Rs 1650 because that is the amount of goods the lady bought and by giving the change against the cost of the goods that is ₹ 350 for the grocery cost.
• So the total loss for the shopkeeper is Rs 350 + Rs 1650 = Rs 2000
• Therefore, a lady buys grocery worth 350 riddle's correct answer is 2000
