Question
If the family decides to reduce their Transportation and
Miscellaneous expenses by 25% each, what will be their new total monthly expenditure? The pie chart below represents the distribution of a family's monthly expenses (total ₹90,000) across five categories: Housing, Food, Transportation, Education, and Miscellaneous. The percentages for each category are as follows:Solution
Transportation expense = 20% of ₹90,000 = ₹18,000. Reduced by 25%: ₹18,000 × 0.75 = ₹13,500. Miscellaneous expense = 10% of ₹90,000 = ₹9,000. Reduced by 25%: ₹9,000 × 0.75 = ₹6,750. New total expenses = ₹90,000 - (₹18,000 - ₹13,500) - (₹9,000 - ₹6,750) = ₹90,000 - ₹4,500 - ₹2,250 = ₹83,250.
