Question

A man donated 5% of his monthly income to a charity and deposited 12% of the rest in a Bank. If he has Rs. 11704 left with him, what is his monthly income?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Let the income be x,

Donation = $\frac{5x}{100}$  

Money Left = x - $\frac{5x}{100}$ = $\frac{95x}{100}$

(100 - 12 = 88)

Money Left = $\frac{95x}{100}$ ×$\frac{88}{100}$ = 11,704

x = $\frac{11,704. 100. 100}{80. 88}$

x = 16,625

Therefore the income is Rs. 16,625.
