​

Answer 1

Hi there!! Here is your answer:-

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

We know that,

Income - expenditure=savings

Let the man's income be x

Expenditure on education=1/2x

Expenditure on household=1/4x

Savings=212500

According to the question:-

x-(1/2x+1/4x)=212500

x-(4/8x+2/8x)=212500

x/1-6/8x=212500

8x/8-6x/8=212500

2x/8=212500

2x=212500*8

2x=1700000

x=1700000/2

x=850000

Therefore his monthly salary is Rs. 850000
