Answer:

Salary of Anand is ₹ 800

Step-by-step explanation:

Let , the salary of Anand be ₹ x

Therefore , amount of money spent on food grains = x × 1/4 = 1x/4 ( one fourth of his salary )

Remaining amount of money = x - 1x/4

=> 4x - 1x / 4

=> 3x / 8

Therefore , remaining amount of money = ₹ 3x / 8

He pays half of the remaining amount of money on house rent

Therefore , amount of money left

= 3x / 4 × 1 / 2

=> 3x / 8

Therefore , amount of money he pays for rent

= 3x / 4 - 3x / 8

=> 6x - 3x / 8

=> 3x / 8

Therefore , according to problem

3x / 8 = ₹ 300

=> 3x = 300 × 8

=> x = 300 × 8 / 3

=> x = ₹ 800

Therefore , salary of Anand = ₹ 800
