Priya spends x% of her monthly salary on groceries and (x + 12)% on transport. She spends 50% of the remaining amount on health insurance. If the amount spent on health insurance is equal to the amount spent on groceries and her monthly salary is Rs 60000, find the amount spent on transport?

ATQ, Priya's monthly salary = Rs 60000 Percentage spent on groceries = x% Percentage spent on transport = (x + 12)% Total percentage spent on groceries and transport = x% + (x + 12)% = (2x + 12)% Remaining percentage of salary = 100% - (2x + 12)% = (88 - 2x)% Percentage spent on health insurance = 50% of (88 - 2x)% = 0.5 * (88 - 2x)% = (44 - x)% Since the amount spent on health insurance is equal to the amount spent on groceries: Or, (44 - x)% of salary = x% of salary Or, 44 - x = x Or, 2x = 44 So, x = 22 Percentage spent on transport = (x + 12)% = (22 + 12)% = 34% Amount spent on transport = 34% of Rs 60000 Or, Amount spent on transport = (34 / 100) * 60000 = Rs 20400 Hence, the correct answer is B.
