    Solution

    Let the salary of man is Rs. 100x.
    => 100x × 75/100 × 80/100 × 90/100 = 135000
    => x = 2500
    Total salary of man of that month = Rs 250000
    Amount spend of advertisement = 25% of 250000= 62500
    Amount spend on gadgets = 250000× 75/100 × 80/100 × 10/100 = Rs. 15000
    Required % = (62500- 15000)/62500×100 = 76%
