Question

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

Answer 1

Let Chameli have Rs. $x$ in the beginning.

She spent $75\%$ of the money that means she has only $25\%$ left with her.

$\therefore$ she is left with $25\%$ of Rs. $x$ which is equal to Rs. $600$.

$\therefore \frac{25}{100}\times x=600$

$\therefore x=\frac{600\times 100}{25}=2400$

So, Chameli had Rs. $2400$ in the beginning.
