      of this profit in stocks, donated 10% of the remaining to charity, and spent 15% of the rest on a party. How much of his profit is left unspent?
      A 25028 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 26320 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 27530 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 26775 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      ATQ,

      Money invested in stocks = 0.30 ร— 50000 = Rs. 15,000

      Amount left = 50000 โ€“ 15000 = Rs. 35,000

      Money donated to charity = 0.10 ร— 35000 = Rs. 3,500

      Money left = 35000 โ€“ 3500 = Rs. 31,500

      Money spent on party = 0.15 ร— 31500 = Rs. 4,725

      So, the profit left unspent = 31500 โ€“ 4725 = Rs. 26,775
