Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The Correct answer is option 2 i.e. Rs. 12,250.

Given that

Afzal's monthly income is Rs. 35,000.

He spends 20% of his monthly income on food, 30% on clothes, and 15% on rent.

His monthly savings = 100 - (20 + 30 + 15) = 100 - 65 = 35%

Hence, His monthly savings = 35% of his monthly income

= (35/100) × 35000 = Rs. 12,250
