Question

A man spends 70% of his salary and saves ₹ 7500 per month. Find his monthly salary.

• A. ₹ 28000
• B. ₹ 25000
• C. ₹ 22500
• D. ₹ 30000

Answer 1

The correct option is B ₹ 25000

% of salary spent = 70%

% of salary saved = 100 - 70 = 30%

Given : Amount saved = ₹ 7500.

Let the total Salary be $x$

As per problem,

$\frac{30}{100}\times x=₹7500$

$\Rightarrow x=\frac{7500\times 100}{30}$

$\Rightarrow x=₹25000$
