    B Rs.1800 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Rs.1500 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Rs.1360 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    ATQ,

    Let the monthly income of Rajesh be Rs. 100x

    So, 0.85 Ă— 100x Ă— 0.30 = 1800

    Or, 25.5x = 1800

    Or, x = 70.59

    Desired amount = 0.30 Ă— 85x = 0.30 Ă— 85 Ă— 70.59 = Rs. 1800
