After spending 80% of his income and giving 10% of the remainder in a charity, a man has Rs. 46260 left with him . ... So, the total percentage of income man spends and gives in charity is 80%+2%=82%

Answer 2

100

and gives in charity ⇒ 80% +2% = 82%

Percentage of income left = 100% - 82%

18%

total income

Total income = 18% of x = 46260

Income of man = Rs. 257000
