    C Rs. 3264 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Rs. 3000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Remaining % of salary with P, => 100 – (26 + 24 + 22 + 19) = 9% So, => 9% --- 540 => 100% = (540/9)×100 = Rs. 6000 Now, salary spent on transportation and food = (26 + 24)% of 6000 = Rs. 3000
