Answer 1

Answer: Rs.175

Step-by-step explanation:

30 percent of salary is Rs.300

So,

30/100 of salary=300

Then, salary=300×100/30= Rs.1000

So now that we know the total income, we can find the expense on house rent.

House rent is 1/4 of the remaining after spending on petrol.

So, 1000-300= Rs.700 is remaining.

1/4 × 700= Rs.175
