Question

Raju earns ₹ 34000 per month. He spends $\frac{1}{4}th$ of his income on food, $\frac{3}{10}th$ of the remainder on house rent and $\frac{5}{21}th$ of the remainder on education of children. How much money is still left with him?

• A. ₹13100
• B. ₹13200
• C. ₹13300
• D. ₹13600

Answer 1

The correct option is D

₹13600

Raju's total monthly income = ₹ 34000

Raju’s expenses on food = $\frac{1}{4}\times 34000$

= ₹ 8500

Money left with Raju = 34000 - 8500
= ₹ 25500

House rent = $\frac{3}{10}\times 25500$
= ₹ 7650

$\text{Now, money left with Raju =}25500–7650$
= ₹ 17850

Children's education = $\frac{5}{21}\times 17850$
= ₹ 4250

Money left with Raju = 17850 – 4250
= ₹13600
