a) Rs.525 b) Rs.1000 c) Rs.675 d) Rs.175
Read Solution (Total 10)
-
- Let the total income be Rs. x
Now 30% of x = 300
So, (30/100)*x=300
x=1000
Now remaining amount = Rs. 1000-300
= Rs. 700
Expenditure on house rent is 1/4 of remaining so
(1/4)*700 = Rs. 175 - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(10) No(0)
- let the income be Rs.x
money spend on petrol = 30% of x
i.e
=> 30 /100 * x = 300
=> x = Rs.1000
and 1/4 of the remaining on house rent and balance on food,so
=> expenditure on house rent = 1/4 * (1000-300)
=Rs.175
so ans is D - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(0)
- ans:175
bcz 30% of his income is 300 means total income is 1000
so remaining 1000-300=700.
spent remaining 1/4 th= 700*(1/4)=175.. - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(0)
- total income is=a
spending to petrol in 'a' is 30%=a(30/100)=spending petrol in Rs.300
a=Rs.1000
total Rs.1000-spending Rs300
=Rs.700
expenditure on house rent is 1/4
1/4*700=Rs. 175 - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(0)
- ans D.
x*30/100=300
x=1000(total income)
remaining money after petrol=1000-300=700
1/4*700=175
ans d is correct - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(0)
- 175, the total income is 1000, 300 for petrol, then 1/4 of the remaining is 175
- 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(0)
- LET THE AMOUNT BE X
30%OF X=300
0.3X=300
X=1000
NOW, 1/4(1000-300)=175
ANS= RS175 - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(0)
