Question

family spends 30% of their income
on rent. If their income is Rs. 18,500
how much is their rent.​

Answer 1

Answer:

3864

Step-by-step explanation:

Let’s say Gaurav’s monthly income is 100 Rs.

Gaurav spends 30 Rs. on food, remaining Rs. = 100 - 30 = 70 Rs.

Spending on conveyance and clothes = 40% of 70 = (40/100) x 70 = 28 Rs.

Remaining Rs. = 70 - 28 = 42 Rs.

Saving = 50% of 42 = (50/100) x 42 = 21 Rs.

Applying unitary method now,

If monthly income is 100 Rs. then saving is 21 Rs.

If monthly income is 1 Rs. then saving = (21/100) Rs.

If monthly income is 18400 then saving = (21/100) x 18400

Therefore, Gaurav’s monthly saving = 21 x 184 = 3864 Rs.

Answer 2

Answer:

Rs. 5,550

Step-by-step explanation:

Here the income of the family = Rs. 18,500

The family spends 30% of the income

on rent =

$= \frac{30}{100} \times 18500 \\ \\ = 30 \times 185 \\ = 5550$

So, the family spends Rs. 5,550 on rent.
