Answer 2

Answer:

8640 rs is spent on food and 3240 rs is spent on rent

Step-by-step explanation:

let the total money be Rs:- 36000

out of it 2/5 were kept in bank

so,

36000*2/5

=> 72000/5

=> 14,400 rs were kept in bank

Now, remaining money

=> 36000-14000

=> 21600 rs

i) 40 % is spent on food

=> 21600 * 40/100

=> 8640 rs is spent on food

ii) 15 % is spent on rent

=> 21600 * 15/100

=> Rs 3240 is spent on rent
