A man spends ₹78,00 per month from his salary. He saves 40% of his salary. What is the salary (in ₹)  for the whole year?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is option 2 i.e.15,60,000.

Let the salary be 100%.

Savings = 40%

Now, expenditure = 100% - 40% = 60%

Given, 60% = 7800

⇒ 1% = 1300

⇒ 100% = 130000

Now salart of 12 months = 12 × 130000 = 15,60,000
