    Solution

    Let the salary of man is Rs. 100x.
    => 100x × 50/100 × 70/100 × 90/100 = 157500
    => x = 5000
    Total salary of man of that month = Rs 500000
    Amount spend of advertisement = 50% of 500000 = 250000
    Amount spend on gadgets = 500000 × 50/100 × 70/100 × 10/100 = Rs. 17500
    Tequired % = (250000 - 17500)/250000 x 100 = 93%
