    Solution

    Let the salary of man is Rs. 100x.
    => 100x × 50/100 × 80/100 × 90/100 = 135000
    => x = 3750
    Total salary of man of that month = Rs 375000
    Amount spend of advertisement = 50% of 375000= 187500
    Amount spend on gadgets = 375000× 50/100 × 80/100 × 10/100 = Rs. 15000
    Required % = (187500 - 15000)/187500×100 = 92%
