Question

A man spends 74% of his monthly salary on house rent. If every month, he also spends ₹385 on conveyance and ₹2,725 on grocery and saves the remaining ₹621, his monthly salary is:

A.

₹14,287

B.

₹14,350

C.

₹14,389

D.

₹14,373

Correct option is B

Given:

House rent = 74% of monthly salary
Conveyance = ₹385
Grocery = ₹2,725
Savings = ₹621
Formula Used:
Income = Expenditure + Savings
Solution:
Remaining Salary after house rent = 385 + 2725 + 621 = ₹3,731
Since, house rent is 74% of the salary, the remaining 26% of the salary is ₹3,731.
26100×Salary=3,731Salary=3,731×10026=14,350\frac{26}{100} \times \text{Salary} = 3,731\\\text{Salary} = \frac{3,731 \times 100}{26} = ₹14,350​​
