Question

Out of an income of $Rs9000$ , Meena spends $Rs7290$ . What percent of her income does she save?

Answer 1

Total income = $Rs9000$

Expenditure = $Rs7290$

$$\begin{gathered} saving=Income-expenditure \\ =9000-7290 \\ =1710Rs \end{gathered}$$

$$\begin{gathered} \%ofsaving=\frac{saving}{totalincome}\times 100 \\ =\frac{1710}{9000}\times 100 \\ =19\% \end{gathered}$$

Therefore, Meena saves $19\%$ of her income.
