Question

Rickey spends 35% of his salary on groceries, 15% on loans, 14% on electricity bills and 6% on miscellaneous. If his savings at the end of a month are Rs. 2,400, then his salary per month (in) is:

A.

8,000

B.

5,828

C.

4,000

D.

6,000

Correct option is A

Total expenses percentage = 35% + 15% + 14% + 6% = 70%
Savings percentage = 100% - Total expenses percentage
Savings percentage = 100% - 70% = 30%

30% = 2400

1% = 80

His Salary per month = 80×100 = Rs. 8000
