Question

Fill in the blanks to make the statement true:

Out of a total deposit of $₹1500$ in her bank account, Abida withdrew $40\%$ of the deposit.

Now the balance in her account is ________.

Answer 1

Evaluate the balance amount

Given, Total deposit $=₹1500$

and, withdrawal $=40\%$

So, the amount withdrawn is $40\%$ of $1500$, that is, $1500\times \frac{40}{100}=₹600$

The remaining amount in the bank account will be,

$$\begin{gathered} \Rightarrow \mathrm{Balance}\mathrm{amount}=\mathrm{Original}\mathrm{amount}-\mathrm{Withdrawn}\mathrm{amount} \\ \Rightarrow \mathrm{Balance}\mathrm{amount}=1500-600 \\ \Rightarrow \mathrm{Balance}\mathrm{amount}=₹900 \end{gathered}$$

Therefore, the balance amount in Abida'a account is $₹900$.
