Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given Question:-

Anand spends one fourth of his salary on food grains and of of the remaining on owl and if the balance with him is rupees 300 what is the salary.

Corrections:-

of=Half

owl=oil

Solution:-

Let the Anand's salary =Rs. X

Amount spent on food grains=one fourth of the salary= Rs. X/4

Remaining money=X-(X/4)

=>(4X-X)/4

=>3X/4

Remaining amount= Rs. 3X/4

Amount spent on Oil =Half of the remaining amount=(3X/4)/2

=>Rs.3X/(2×4)

=>Rs 3X/8

Remaining amount =(3X/4)-(3X/8)

=>(6X-3X)/8

=>3X/8

Remaining amount=Rs.300

=>3X/8=300

=>3X=8×300

=>3X=2400

=>X=2400/3

=>X=800

Initial amount of Anand=Rs.800

Answer:-

The salary of Anand=Rs.800

Check:-

Anand's Salary=Rs.800

Money spent on food grains=800/4=200

Remaining amount=800-200=Rs.600

Money spent on Oil=600/2=Rs.300

Remaining money =600-300=Rs.300
