Question 3 Roshan wants to buy milk and 3 types of fruit to make fruit custard for 5 people. He estimates the cost to be ₹100. Do you agree with him? Why or why not?No, I do not agree with his estimate of ₹100. Method: I would break down the cost of each ingredient needed for five people. 1 liter of milk: ≈ ₹65 3 types of fruit (e.g., a few bananas, two apples, a small bunch of grapes): ≈ ₹35 + ₹50 + ₹60 = ₹145 Estimate: The total cost would likely be over ₹200 (₹65 + ₹145). Roshan's estimate of ₹100 is too low.
