    D Rs. 3430 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Remaining % of salary with P, => 100 – (30 + 25 + 28 + 10) = 7% So, => 7% --- 490 => 100% = (490/7)×100 = Rs. 7000 Now, salary spent on transportation and food = (30 + 25)% of 7000 = Rs. 3850
