Question

a man uses Rs. 2210 and saves 15% of his salary. what was his salary?​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

let the salary be S

amount of money used/spent= Rs 2210

Amount of money saved= 15/100 x S = 3/20 x S

Thus

S - 2210 = 3S/20

S - 3S/20 = 2210

(20S - 3S)/20 = 2210

20S - 3S = 2210 x 20

17S = 2210 x 20

S = 130 x 20 = Rs2600....since 17 x 13 =2210

hence salary of the person = Rs 2600

Answer 2

Answer:

His salary is ₹2600

Step-by-step explanation:

Question:-

A man uses Rs. 2210 and saves 15% of his salary. what was his salary?

Given:-

• A man uses ₹2210 from his salary
• A man saves 15% of this salary

To find:-

The total salary

Solution:-

According to the question it is given that,

A man uses ₹2210 from his salary

A man saves 15% of this salaray

Let us assume that,

Total no. of salary be x

According to the condition,

X= total money spend + savings

Savings= 15% of X = 15X/100

Then the equation we get from the problem:

2210 + 15/100 of X = X

221000 + 15X/100 = X

221000 + 15X = 100X

-85X = -221000

X = 221000/85 = Rs. 2600.

Ans: ₹2600.

Total salary=₹2600
