Answer 1

Answer:

let his salary be 100%

he gives his wife 50% that means half(1/2)

he spends 2500 from the from 1/2 and save the rest

the amount he save is 3/7 of 100%

1/2 - 3/7 = 1/14

Answer 2

Answer:

Aravind's salary per month is Rs 31250.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Aravind's salary be 'x'

He gives half his monthly salary to his wife

∴Money given to wife=1/2x

 She spends 2,500 for personal uses, saving per month = 3/7 of his monthly salary

∴Total money spent and saved by wife =2500+3/7x

∴2500+3/7x=1/2x

∴2500=0.08x

∴x=2500/0.08=31250.

Therefore, Aravind's salary per month is Rs 31250.
