Answer 2

Given: Percentage of salary spent on family = 66%

Remaining amount of money = ₹12,240

To find: The total salary of Mr. Hari​

Solution: If 66% of the salary is spent on the family, then remaining percentage of salary = (100 - 66)% = 34%.

Now let the total salary of Mr. Hari be x.

Hence according to the question,

34% of x = 12240

⇒ 34/100 × x = 12240

⇒ x = 12240 × 100/34

⇒ x = 360 × 100

⇒ x = 36000

Therefore, the total salary of Mr. Hari​ is ₹36,000.
