Can I know the right answer
Surely you have an answer in whichever book you found the question, and you should use this forum to ask about whatever in the answer you do not understand!!
(If your book does not have an answer, then you should be using a different book 🙂 )
The answer is: 302,800 + 2,960 + 2,000 + 84,000 – 60,000 = 331,760
