    Solution

    Let the salary of man is Rs. 100x.
    => 100x × 60/100 × 75/100 × 80/100 = 135000
    => x = 3750
    Total salary of man of that month = Rs 375000
    Amount spend of advertisement = 40% of 375000 = 150000
    Amount spend on gadgets = 375000 × 60/100 × 75/100 × 20/100 = Rs. 33750
    Required % = (150000 - 33750)/150000 × 100 = 77.5%
