Question

Out of a total deposit of ₹ 1500 in her bank account, Abida withdrew 40% of the deposit. Now the balance in her account is ______.

Answer 1

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
