remaining amount, she spent 22% on household expenses, 28% on shopping, 12% on transportation, and saved Rs. 1600. Find the amount spent by her on shopping.Solution
ATQ,
Let the monthly income of Sneha be Rs. 100x
So, 0.82 × 100x × 0.28 = 1600
Or, 22.96x = 1600
Or, x = 69.7
Desired amount = 0.28 × 82x = 0.28 × 82 × 69.7 = Rs. 1600
