D)500 is the answer of your question

Answer 2

Answer:

The answer is (d)i.e.500

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly take the income as 'x' variable.

Now as per the question says,the man spends 15%of his income.i.e.as expenditure.

So the man spends 15%of 'x'

It implies that 15/100*x.

By the given condition,

15/100*x = 75

or,x=75*100/15

or x=500.

Therefore,the income is Rs500
