Steps: 2 Marks
Answer: 1 Mark each

Given that:
Meet saves ₹ 4000 from her salary, which is 10% of her salary.

Let Meet’s salary be ₹ x

Given that,

10% of x=4000

10100×x=4000

x10=4000

x=4000×10=40000

Therefore, Meet’s salary is ₹ 40,000.

Her net expenditure = Salary - savings = 40000 - 4000 = ₹ 36,000

Now in order to buy a bike Meet starts saving 30% of her salary.
Her salary is ₹ 40,000.

The total amount she starts saving monthly = 30100×40,000 = 12,000
Her net saving monthly is ₹ 12,000.
