    Question

    Sonal had a total income of Rs. 45000. She spent Rs. 5000

    less than the amount she saved. What portion of her income did she spend in percentage?
    A 28.35% Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 20.08% Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 44.44% Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 35.23% Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    ATQ,

    Let the amount saved by Sonal = Rs. Y

    Then, amount spent by Sonal = Rs. (Y - 5000)

    We have, Y + Y - 5000 = 45000

    Or, Y = (45000 + 5000) Ă· 2 = Rs. 25000

    So, amount spent by Sonal = 25000 - 5000 = Rs. 20000

    Required percentage = (20000 / 45000) Ă— 100 = 44.44%
