Question

an employee in his salary .1/3 for food and 1/8 for rent and 1/3 for fees he spend. he savings is 36000 but how much his salary​

Answer 1

Answer:

His salary is 172,800

Step-by-step explanation:

An employee  spend 1/3 of his salary for food

He spend 1/8 of his salary for rent

And he spend 1/3 of his salary for fees

Therefore, he spent (1/3 + 1/8 + 1/3) of his salary = (8 + 3 + 8)/24 of his salary.

= 19/24 of his salary.

Therefore, he could save (1 - 19/24) of his salary = (24 - 19)/24 of his salary

= 5/24 of his salary.

According to the problem, 5/24 of his salary =  36,000

Therefore, his salary is 36,000 x 24/5 = 172,800
