Question

Anyone
A father gives 1% of his monthly income to his

2 sons. He gives 80% of that amount to his elder

son. From which he spends 80% of the amount

that he acquires and his monthly saving remains

Rs 20. Find the income of father​

Answer 1

Answer:

The income of father is ₹ 12,500

The elder son saves 20% which is equal to ₹20 & spends 80% which is equal to ₹ 80

So, total amount that he get = ₹100

Now ₹ 100 is 80% of what the father gives both of them.

So, by cross multiplication, 100% = ₹125

( 100 x 20 / 80 )

So, the father gives a total of ₹125 to both the sons.

Now, ₹125 = 1%

So, 100% = 125 x 100

= ₹ 12,500

So, Father's income is ₹12,500
