A man spends 40% of his monthly salary on food and one-third of the remaining on transport. If he saves Rs.4,500 per month, which is equal to half the balance after spending on food and transport, his monthly salary is
a) Rs.25,000
b) Rs.22,500
c) Rs.11,250
d) Rs.45,000
Answer »Answer: (b)
Suppose monthly income of the man is Rs. x.
Expenditure on food = 40% of x = Rs.${2x}/5$
Remaining amount = x - ${2x}/5= Rs.{3x}/5$
Expenditure on transport = $1/3 × {3x}/5 = Rs.x/5$
Remaining amount = ${3x}/5 - x/5 = {2x}/5$
According to question $1/2 × {2x}/5 = 4500$
x = 4500 × 5 = Rs.22,500
Question : 6
Given that 10% of A's income = 15% of B's income = 20% of C's income. If sum of their income is Rs.7800, then B's income is:
a) Rs.2400
b) Rs.3000
c) Rs.3600
d) Rs.1800
Answer »Answer: (a)
10% of A = 15% of B = 20% of C
10A = 15B = 20C
${10A}/60 = {15B}/60 = {20C}/60$
$A/6 = B/4 = C/3$
A : B : C = 6 : 4 : 3
6x + 4x + 3x = 7800
13 x = 7800
x = $7800/13$ = 600
B's income = 4x = 600 × 4 = Rs.2400
