Let the total salary be X

vandita donated 20% of x

spent on charity --10% of x

money left with her ₹11,880

according to the question-->>>>

$➠ \frac{20x}{100} + \frac{10x}{100} = 11880$

$➠ \frac{x}{5} + \frac{x}{10} = 11880$

$➠ \frac{2x + x}{10} = 11880$

$➠ \frac{3x}{10} = 11880$

$➠3x = 118800$

$➠x = \frac{118800}{3} = 39600$

₹39,600 is the total salary

Hope it helps you..!!!
