Question

Sharman gives 0.025 part of her salary as pocket money to her son every month. he spends 0.8 part of pocket money and saves the rest. if he saves rs. 555 in 6 months, find the monthly salary of sharman

Answer 1

Answer:

Monthly salary of Sharman is 528.57

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 'x' be the salary for 1 month, salary for 6 months is 6x

Pocket money for son for 6 months= 6*0.025x= 0.15x

Money spent by him for 6 months= 6*0.8x= 4.8x

Hence, expenditure for 6 months= 4.95x

6x-4.95x=555; 1.05x=555

x=528.57
