A man spends 10% of his salary on food. He spends 20% of the remaining part on fuel. If he is left with ₹4680, then what is his salary?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 3
Let Salary of Men = 100x
Expenditure on Food = 10% of 100x = 10x
Remaining = 100x - 10x = 90x
Expenditure on Fuel = 20% of 90x = 18x
According to question ,
100x - 10x - 18x = 72x
72x = 4680
x = 65
Salary of Men = 100 × 65 = 6500
