Answer 1

Question  :

Meenal saves 25 percent of her monthly income. If she spends Rs. 15000 monthly, find her monthly income​ ?

Answer :

Let her monthly income be, x

Saving = 25% of monthly income

           = $\frac{25}{100}$ × x

          = $\frac{1}{4}$ × x

          = $\frac{x}{4}$

Expenditure = Rs 15000

Expenditure = Total Salary - Saving  

Rs. 15000 = x - $\frac{x}{4}$

15000 = $\frac{x}{1}$ × $\frac{4}{4}$ - $\frac{x}{4}$

15000 = $\frac{4x}{4} - \frac{x}{4}$

15000 = $\frac{3x}{4}$

15000 × 4 = 3x

60000 = 3x

x = $\frac{60000}{3}$

x = 20000

$\therefore$ Her monthly income is Rs. 20000
