    Question

    A man spends 30% of his salary on rent, 25% on

    groceries, and the remaining on savings. If he saves ₹18,000, what is his total salary?
    A ₹40,000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B ₹72,000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C ₹80,000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D ₹50,000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Let salary = x. Expenditure = 30% of x + 25% of x = 0.30x + 0.25x = 0.55x. Savings = x - Expenditure = x - 0.55x = 0.45x. Given savings = ₹18,000. 0.45x = 18000 → x = 18000 / 0.45 = ₹40,000. Correct answer: A) ₹40,000
