Question

Tarun saves Rs 4000 every month from his salary. If his savings is 16% of his salary, find his salary.

Answer 1

Given -

• Savings of Tarun every month = ₹4000

• Percentage of his savings from salary = 61%

To find -

• Tarun's Salary

Solution -

Let the Salary be considered as x

Amount saved by Tarun is ₹4000

so,

$\longmapsto$ 16% of x = ₹4000

$\longmapsto$ $\sf\dfrac{16}{100}$ × x = ₹4000

$\longmapsto$ 0.16 × x = ₹4000

$\longmapsto$ = ₹4000/0.16

$\longmapsto$ x = ₹25000

$\therefore$ The salary of Tarun is ₹25000
