Q: Veena spends 25% of her monthly income on household expenses. Her annual income is ₹ 4.32 lakh. What is the total amount that Veena spends on household expenses in 8 months together?

Annual household expenses = ₹ (25% of 4.32 x 105) = ₹ (25/100) x 4.32 x 105 = ₹ ( 25 x 4.32 x 103) ∴ Household expenses for 8 months = ₹ [(25 x 4.32)/(12 x 8)] x 103) = ₹ 72000

₹ 74000
₹ 71000
₹ 73000
₹ 72000

Correct Answer: ₹ 72000

= ₹ ( 25 x 4.32 x 10³)
∴ Household expenses for 8 months
= ₹ [(25 x 4.32)/(12 x 8)] x 10³)
= ₹ 72000
