    Solution

    Let the income of the man be Rs. x Therefore, sum donated to NGO ‘A’ = Rs. 0.11x Sum left with NGO ‘A’ = 0.25 × 0.11x = Rs. 0.0275x Sum donated to NGO ‘B’ = Rs. 0.13x Sum left with NGO ‘B’ = 0.2 × 0.13x = Rs. 0.026x Sum donated to NGO ‘C’ = Rs. 0.21x Sum left with NGO ‘C’ = 0.5 × 0.21x = Rs. 0.105x According to the question, 0.0275x + 0.026x + 0.105x = 4755 Or, 0.1585x = 4755 Or, x = 4755/0.1585 = 30000 Therefore, income of man = Rs. 30000
