Solution
Out of a total deposit of ₹ 1500 in her bank account, Abida withdrew 40% of the deposit. Now the balance in her account is ₹ 900.
Explanation:
From the question,
Total deposit in Abida’s account = ₹ 1500
Percentage of amount Abida withdrew = 40%
Then, amount withdrew = 40% of ₹ 1500
= `40/100 xx 1500`
= `60000/100`
= ₹ 600
Then, remaining amount in the account
= ₹ 1500 – ₹ 600
= ₹ 900
