Avni spent rs.4000 from her salary to buy a gift. if she saved 90% of her salary. what is her salary?

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

let her salary be x

then,

10% of x=4000

10x/100=4000

10x=400000

x=400000/10

x=40000

so,her salary is 40,000

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Savings = 90%

Therefore,

Expenditure = (100 - 90)%= 10%

Let her salary be ₹ x.

$10 \% \: of \: x = 4000 \\ \therefore \: \frac{10}{100} \times x = 4000 \\ \therefore \: x = 4000 \times \frac{100}{10}\\ \therefore \: x = 4000 \times 10\\ \therefore \: x =40000$

Hence Avni's salary is ₹ 40,000.
