    Solution

    Let the salary of man is Rs. 100x.
    => 100x × 60/100 × 80/100 × 90/100 = 135000
    => x = 3125
    Total salary of man of that month = Rs 312500
    Amount spend of advertisement = 40% of 312500 = 125000
    Amount spend on gadgets = 312500 × 60/100 × 80/100 × 10/100 = Rs. 15000
    Tequired % = (125000 - 15000)/125000 x 100 = 88%
