Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3 i.e. 1,20,000

Given:

Monthly salary of a person is ₹50,000

He spends 40% of his salary on household expenses, 25% on rent, and 15% on transportation

Calculations:

Monthly Savings (in %) = 100 - (40 + 25 + 15) = 100 - 80 = 20%

Monthly savings = 20% of 50000 = 10000

Yearly savings = 12 × 10000 = 120000
