    A Rs. 3850 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Rs. 3300 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Rs. 3264 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Rs. 4800 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Remaining % of salary with P, => 100 – (24 + 36 + 19 + 17) = 4% So, => 4% --- 320 => 100% = (320/4)×100 = Rs. 8000 Now, salary spent on transportation and food = (24 + 36) % of 8000 = Rs. 4800
