A man spends 25% of his income on house rent 45% of his income on food, and 40% of the balance on conveyance. If he is left with Rs. 540, his income is?
a. 4500
b. 3000
c. 1350
d. 900
e. 2800

• b. 3000
  If the total income=x
  Expenditure on House Rent=0.25x ,Food=0.45x, So on (rent+food)=0.7x
  and balance =0.3x, Given 40% of balance on Conveyance=0.3x*0.4=0.12x
  Total(House Rent+Food+Conveyance)=0.25x+0.45x+0.12x=0.82x
  Now income left=x-0.82x=0.18x=540, so x= 540/0.18 =3000 Rs.

  70% is spent on HR and food.
  40% of balance 30% on conveyance and 60% of balance 30% is left after conveyance charges.
  
  If x is TOTAL income, then
  x*0.3*0.6= 540
  x = 540/0.18 = Rs 3000

• 100-(25+45+((30/100*40))=18%
  18%=540
  1%=30
  100%=3000

• 80% is spent on HR and food.
  40% of balance 20% on conveyance.
  
  If x is income, then
  x*0.2*0.6= 540
  x = 540/0.12 = Rs 4500

• b.3000 bcoz he spends 70% on house and food. and 40% of rest 30% =12% on conveyance.
  so 100%-82%=18%
  18%=540
  1%=30
  100%=3000

• 45+25=70%.then 100-70=30.therefore 540/(30%*40%)=4500

• ans:let us total income =100%
  income on house =25%......................remaining income=75%
  income on rent =45% of 75%.........remaining income =33.75%
  income on conveyance =40% of 33.75%....remaining income=13.50%
  13.50%---------->540 then
  100%------------>?
  100*540/13.50=4000

• Lets assume total income as 'x'
  45%+25%=70%
  REMAINING 30%
  40% OF 30% SPENT
  REMAINS 60%
  SO,
  60/100*30/100 OF x = 540
  
  on solving answer is 3000.
