Solution

Let 

\[S_n\] denote the total amount the person receives in n years.
Let d be the common increment in his income every year.
Let a denote the initial income of the person.
Here, a = 300,000, d = 10000, n = 20
Total amount at the end of 20 years:

\[S_{20} = \frac{20}{2}\left\{ 2 \times 300, 000 + (20 - 1)10, 000 \right\}\]

\[ = 79, 00, 000\]

Therefore, the total amount the person receives in 20 years is Rs 79,00,000.
