Question

Akshay spends 40% of his income. If he saves ₹24,000, then his income (in ₹) is:

A.

9,600

B.

40,000

C.

41,000

D.

39,000

Correct option is B

Given:

Akshay spends 40% of his income.

He saves ₹24,000.

Solution:
Saving % = 100% - 40% = 60%.
Income = 24,0000.60=40,000\dfrac{24{,}000}{0.60} = 40{,}000​​

Alternate Method:
Spend : Save = 40 : 60 = 2 : 3.
3 parts = ₹24,000 

1 part = ₹8,000 

Income = (2+3)=5 parts = 5×8,000=40,000 \times 8{,}000 = ₹40{,}000​​
