Answer 1

Step 1: Given details about the man's salary

Monthly income $=₹15,400$

Percentage of income the man spends (Expenditure) $=90\%$

Percentage converts into a fraction on dividing it by $100$

Amount the man spends $=\frac{90}{100}\times 15,400$

$=₹13,860$

Step 2: Finding total savings per month

Savings$=$Total income$-$Expenditure

$=15,400-13,860$

$=₹1,540$

Hence, his savings per month is$₹1,540$
