Answer 1

Answer:

80

Step-by-step explanation:

Let total money be x

then x−20 × x= 100x−20x⇒80x

100 100 100

5% of the remaining amount which is Rs. 80x as:

100

5% of 80x

100

5 × 80x = 4x

100 100 100

Now, to get the amount he has left with after spending on transportation is given by:

80x − 4x = 76x

100 100 100

Then, he gifted Rs. 120 and still left with Rs. 1400.

So, the expression referring to the above condition is as:

76x − 120=1400

100

76x = 1520⇒x = 1520×100⇒x = 2000

100 76

total amount , i.e x is 2000

Money spent on transportation is

4x × 2000 = 80

100

money spent on transportation = 80
