A person, who spends 68% of his monthly income, is able to save Rs. 14,720 per month. Find his total expenses.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3 i.e. Rs. 31,280.

Income = Expenditure + Savings

100% = 68% + Savings

Savings = 32%

Total savings of the man = Rs. 14,720

⇒ 32% = Rs 14720

So, Expenditure = (14720/32) × 68%

Expenditure = Rs 31280
