Question

if a men spend half of its income on food and 1/4 of what is left on clothes,at the end if has ₹300 left with him ,find his total income​

Answer 1

let the income of man be x ruppes

Money spend on food=x/2

Left money =x-x/2=x/2

Money spend on his clothes =x/4ofx/2=x/8

At the end money left with him =300

Hence, his total income =

300=x-x/2+x8

300=3x/8

=800

Answer 2

Answer:

Rs.800

Step-by-step explanation:

You can start with is left

Rs.300

If he uses 1/4 of what is left on clothes, then 3/4 of what is left is remaining with him. Let x be what is left.

3/4x=300

x=300 into 4/3

x=400

So Rs.400 was left with him.

The man spent half of his income on his income on food.

Let his income be x now. Then,

1/2x=400

So, x=800

His income was Rs.800
