The pie chart shows how a family uses its total monthly income of Rs 33,650, as percentages of that income.

After the provident fund deduction and the payment of house rent, how much of the total monthly income of the family remains (in Rs)?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 2
The correct answer is Option (2) → 23555
The provident fund and house rent take away their two percentages of the income, so the rest of the percentage is what remains.
Provident fund + house rent \(=12\%+18\%=30\%\)
Remaining \(=100\%-30\%=70\%\)
\(70\%\) of 33650 \(=0.7\times33650=23555\)
