Question

Jaya saves 23% of her monthly salary. If her expenditure per month is 9702 find her salary

Answer 1

let JAVA SALARY BE x
HER SAVINGS IS 9702.
HER SAVINGS ARE 23/100X x
WE KNOW THAT
salary-expeniture =savings
therefore x-9702=23/100Xx
x-23/100Xx=9702
100x-23x/100=9702
77x/100=9702
x=9702X100/77
x=12600

Answer 2

let her salary be x.
she saves per month = 23x / 100
so she expends per month = x - 23x/100
= 77x / 100
ATP
77x / 100 = 9702
x = 12600
therefore, her monthly salary is Rs. 12,600
