Answer :

Certainly! Let's break this down step by step:

1. Monthly Deposit by Each Fisherwoman:
Each fisherwoman deposits Rs. 965 every month.

2. Number of Fisherwomen:
There are 18 fisherwomen in total.

3. Total Deposit in a Month:
To find out how much is deposited in total by all the fisherwomen in one month, we multiply the amount each fisherwoman deposits by the number of fisherwomen.
[tex]\[ \text{Monthly Total Deposit} = 965 \, \text{Rs} \, \times 18 \][/tex]

4. Number of Months in a Year:
There are 12 months in a year.

5. Total Deposit by One Fisherwoman in a Year:
To calculate the total deposit by an individual fisherwoman in one year, we multiply the monthly deposit by the number of months in a year.
[tex]\[ \text{Yearly Deposit per Fisherwoman} = 965 \, \text{Rs} \, \times 12 = 11580 \, \text{Rs} \][/tex]

6. Total Deposit by all Fisherwomen in a Year:
To find the total deposit by all 18 fisherwomen for the entire year, we multiply the yearly deposit per fisherwoman by the number of fisherwomen.
[tex]\[ \text{Total Yearly Deposit} = 11580 \, \text{Rs} \, \times 18 = 208440 \, \text{Rs} \][/tex]

So, the total amount deposited in the bank in a year by the 18 fisherwomen is Rs. 208440.
