A man spends 30% of his salary on rent, 20% on groceries, and 25% on other expenses. If he saves Rs. 9,000, what is his salary?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Explanation
Given:
Rent = 30%
Groceries = 20%
Other Expenses = 25%
Savings = Rs. 9000
Total Expense % = 75%
Savings % = 100 − 75 = 25%
If 25% = Rs. 9000
100% = (9000 × 100) / 25
100% = 900000 / 25
100% = Rs. 36000
