Question

Mr khanna spent 83% of his salary and saved 1870 rupees. Calculate his monthly salary

Answer 1

Hi,

Let Mr. Khanna's monthly salary = Rs x

Percentage spent from his salary = 83 %

Percentaged saved from his salary = 100 - 83 = 17%

According to the problem given ,

17% of monthly salary = Rs 1870

17 / 100 × x = 1870

x = ( 1870 × 100 ) / 17

x = 110 × 100

x = Rs 11000

Therefore ,

Mr.Khanna's monthly salary = x = Rs 11000

I hope this helps you.

Answer 2

let his salary be rs. x
therefore,
according to question,
17/100*x=1870
17x=1870*100
17x=187000
x=18700/17
x=11000
therefore his salary is rs.11000
