Answer 2

SOLUTION

GIVEN

• X spends 35% of his income on shopping and 40% on house rent.

• House rent is $ 3,840

TO DETERMINE

The amount X spend on shopping

EVALUATION

Let total income of X = $ P

So the amount spent for house rent

$\displaystyle \sf{ =P \times \frac{40}{100} }$

So by the given condition

$\displaystyle \sf{P \times \frac{40}{100} = 3840 }$

$\displaystyle \sf{ \implies \: P = 3840 \times \frac{100}{40} }$

$\displaystyle \sf{ \implies \: P = 9600}$

So total income of X = $ 9600

Now X spends 35% of his income on shopping

Hence the amount X spend on shopping

$\displaystyle \sf{ = 9600 \times \frac{100}{40} }$

$\sf{ = 3360}$

FINAL ANSWER

The amount X spend on shopping = $ 3360
