Question

A man spends $87\%$ of his salary. If he saves Rs. $325$; find his salary.

Answer 1

If the men spends $87$ $\%$ of the salary, this means he saves $100-87=13$ $\%$ of the salary.
But given, he saves Rs. $325$

So,
$\Rightarrow 13\%\times salary=325$

$\Rightarrow \frac{13}{100}\times$ salary $=325$
$\therefore$ Salary $=325\times \frac{100}{13}=$ Rs.$2500$
