• simple way to answer this type of question is.......... focus on the remaining part of the stipent only.....
  let X be the monthly stipent.... then
  (1/2)*80%*55%*X= 880
  X= rs. 4000

• FORMULA--.>>>>> [100/(100-m)] * [100/(100-n)] * [100/(100-p)] * x
  
  sOLUTION----->>>> [100/(100-45)] * [100/(100-20)] * [100/(100-50)] * 880
  Ans =4000

• LET MONTHLE STIPEND BE x
  45*x/100=9x/20
  remaining=x-9x/20=11x/20
  (20/100)*11x/20=11x/100
  expenses=11x/200
  11x/200=880
  x=200*880/11=200*80=16000rs

• let the initial amount be x. then
  45% on food and transport = 45/100*x = 9x/20
  balance= (x-9x/20) = 11x/20
  20% on book = (20/100*11x/20 ) = 11x/100
  balance = 11x/20 - 11x/100 = 44x/100
  half of the remaining on other expenses = 1/2*(44x/100) = 22x/100
  22x/100 = 880 => x= 880*100/22 => x = 44,000

• 4000
  from 100, monthly stipend=45
  remaining book=11
  half from remaining=22
  left money=22 which is 880 so total money 4000

• let monthly stipend be x.
  x*45/100=9x/20.
  cost of book nd remaing other expenses=(x-9x/20)*20/100=11x/100.
  remaing=(11x/20-11x/100)=44x/100.
  according the question,1/2*(44x/100)=880
  x=4000

• Let his monthly stipend be Rs x
  food and transport 45/100*x=9/20*x
  Remaining=11/20*x
  on book=20% of 11/20*x=11/100*x
  Remaining=11/20*x - 11/100*x=44/100*x
  other expenses=0.5*44/100*x
  Now
  0.5*44/100*x=880
  x=4000(Ans)
