Rahul earns Rs. 15,000 per month. He gives 18% of his salary to his mother every month. Thereafter, he spends Rs. 7800 on household expenditures and other entertainment expenditures. Now, what percentage of the total salary is left with him?
C
Correct answer
Explanation
Monthly earning of Rahul is Rs. 15000.
Money given by him to his mother = 18% of 15000 = Rs. 2700
Money left with him after giving = 15000 – 2700 = Rs. 12300
Money left with him after spending on household expenditures and other entertainment expenditures = 12300 – 7800 = Rs. 4500
So, the percentage of the total salary left is 30%.
Option (3) is correct.
