Question

Roshan spends 80% of the money that he receives every month and saves ₹ 2500. How much money does he get monthly?

Let the total money be x.

Then, Amount spend = `square/100`

Amount saved = ₹ `square`

Now, `square/100 + square` = x

`x - square/100 = square`

`square/100 = square`

x = `(square xx 100)/square`

x = `square`

Hence, Roshan get ₹ `square` as monthly Salary.

Solution

Let the total money be x.

Then, Amount spend = `bb(80x)/100`

Amount saved = ₹ 2500

Now, `bb(80x)/100 + bb2500` = x

`x - bb(80x)/100 = bb2500`

`bb(20x)/100 = bb2500`

x = `(bb2500 xx 100)/20`

x = 12,500

Hence, Roshan get ₹ 12,500 as monthly Salary.
