Question

If Chameli had$Rs.600$ left after spending $75\%$ of her money, how much did she have in beginning?

Answer 1

Let the total money she had in the beginning $=Rs.x$

It is given that, Money left after spending $75\%$ of her money $=Rs.600$

$\Rightarrow x-75\%\text{of}x=600$

$\Rightarrow x-\frac{75x}{100}=600$

$\Rightarrow x-\frac{3x}{4}=600$

$\Rightarrow \frac{4x-3x}{4}=600$

$\Rightarrow \frac{x}{4}=600$

$\Rightarrow x=4\times 600$

$\Rightarrow x=2400$

Hence, Chameli had $Rs.2,400$ in the beginning.
