Question
The sum of the monthly incomes of ‘A’, ‘B’ and
‘C’ is Rs. 60000 which is 4 times the monthly income of ‘C’. If ‘A’ spends 60% of his income while ‘B’ spends 80% of his income and the sum of their savings is Rs. 16000, then find the savings of ‘A’.Solution
Monthly income of ‘C’ = 60000/4 = Rs. 15000 Let the monthly income of ‘A’ be Rs. x Therefore, monthly income of ‘B’ = Rs. (45000 – x) According to the question, 0.40x + 0.20(45000 – x) = 16000 Or, 0.2x = 7000 x = 35000 Or, savings of ‘A’ = 0.4x = Rs. 14000

? = 41.92% of 49.96% of (45.07 1.97 – 4.98 2.03 )
(15.15 × 31.98) + 30.15% of 719.99 = ? + 124.34
15.2 x 1.5 + 258.88+ ? = 398.12 + 15.9
784.69 + 86.96 ÷ 29.01 = 40.01 + ? + 367.88
(29.892 × √290) + 32.98 × 6.91 = ?
(15.87% of 79.98 + 19.69% of 64.22) × 4.83 = ?
(3/5) of 3025 + (18² + 12²) = ? + 22.22% of 1125
24.75% of 20.125% of 30.05% of 2196.06 = ?
(799.81/64) ÷ (10/799.92) × (129.84/130) = ?
