$\huge\bold\green{Answer}$

Given :

• Total salary - Rs. 2000
• Provident fund deducted is 8%.
• He spends 10% on house rent and 20% of salary .

$\huge\boxed{Answer:}$

Money deducted as a provident fund

= 8% of Rs. 2000

$= \frac{8}{100} \times 2000 \\ = 160 \: rs.$

$\boxed{Remaining\:Salary}$

= 2000 - 160

= 1840 Rs.

$\rule{300}{2}$

Now, expenditure of rent = 10% of 1840

$= \frac{10}{100} \times 1840 \\ = 184 \: rs.$

expenditure of food = 20% of 1840

$= \frac{20}{100} \times 1840 \\ = 368 \: rs.$

hence,

• he spend $\bold\red{Rs.184}$ in house rent.
• he spend $\bold\red{Rs.368}$ in education.

=160rs.

\boxed{Remaining\:Salary}

RemainingSalary

= 2000 - 160

= 1840 Rs.

\rule{300}{2}

Now, expenditure of rent = 10% of 1840

10

×1840

=184rs.

expenditure of food = 20% of 1840

\begin{gathered} = \frac{20}{100} \times 1840 \\ = 368 \: rs.\end{gathered}
