      Solution

      Let monthly income = Rs. 100b Spending on education = 100b Γ— 0.2 = Rs. 20b Spending on medical expenses = 100b Γ— 0.35 = Rs. 35b Spending on leisure activities = (100b – 20b – 35b) Γ— 0.15 = Rs. 6.75b Savings = 100b – 20b – 35b – 6.75b = Rs. 38.25b Now, 6.75b = 750 Or, 38.25b = 4250 Total interest paid by the bank deposit: = P Γ— r Γ— t = 4250 Γ— 7 Γ— 1/100 = Rs. 297.50 Amount = 4250 + 297.50 = Rs. 4547.50
