Question

Meeta saves Rs. $400$ from her salary. If this is $10$% of her salary. What is her salary?

• A. Rs$7000$
• B. Rs$6000$
• C. Rs$4000$
• D. Rs$5000$

Answer 1

Answer: (C)

Rs$4000$

Let, Meeta salary be $Rs.x$

If she saves $10$% of her salary and it is equal to $Rs.400$ then,

$10$ % of $x=400$

$⟹\frac{10}{100}\times x=400$

$⟹\frac{x}{10}=400$

$⟹x=400\times 10$

$\therefore x=4000$

Meeta salary is $Rs.4000$
