Shiya invests ₹1,53,000, which is 30% of her annual income, in mutual funds. What is her monthly income (in ₹)?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 2 i.e 42,500.

Shiya's investment of ₹1,53,000 represents 30% of her annual income.

Let her annual income be x

So,

⇒ 0.30 × x = 153000

⇒ x = 153000/0.30

⇒ x = 15300000/30

⇒ x = 310000

Therefore, Shiya's annual income is ₹5,10,000

Now, her monthly income = 510000/12 =  ₹42500

So, Shiya's monthly income is ₹42,500
