A man spend 20% of his monthly salary on his children's education and 50% of his salary on food and transport. After Paying the rent of Rs.1000, he is left with Rs.2000. What is his monthly salary?

Correct Answer: 10000

Let his monthly salary be 'P'


20% on children's education =  20 P 100   =   P 5


50% on food and transport =  50 P 100   =   P 2


1000 on rent


=>  P   -   P 5   -   P 2   -   1000   =   2000 = >   3 P   =   30000 = >   P   =   10000


 


Therefore, his monthly salary = Rs. 10,000
