        Conversion of Rupees into Paise


            ™   To convert rupees into paise, we multiply the amount in rupees by 100.
               For example,   6 rupees = 6 × 100 paise = 600 paise                           [1 rupee = 100 paise]
                                  18 rupees = 18 × 100 paise = 1800 paise

            ™   To convert ‘rupees and paise’ into paise, we multiply the amount in rupees by 100 and
               add it to the number of paise.                                          Fact-o-meter
               For example,                                                          To convert rupees and

               26 rupees 35 paise = (26 × 100) paise + 35 paise                      paise into paise, we
                                     = 2600 paise + 35 paise = 2635 paise            remove the decimal
                                                                                     and the sign of ‘`’. For
              175 rupees 80 paise = (175 × 100) paise + 80 paise                     example,

                                     = 17500 paise + 80 paise = 17580 paise              ` 47.25 = 4725 paise.
                            ` 16.75 = 16 rupees 75 paise = (16 × 100) paise + 75 paise

                                     = 1600 paise + 75 paise = 1675 paise
