    An individual possesses Rs. 18,000. He spends 8% of it on

    food distribution, then 25% of the remaining on children's education, and 10% of the next remaining for animal shelter. What is the final amount left?
    A ₹12,760 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B ₹11,178 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C ₹16,600 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D ₹18,976 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    ATQ,

    Money spent on food distribution = 0.08 × 18000 = Rs. 1,440

    Remaining amount = 18000 – 1440 = Rs. 16,560

    Money spent on children's education = 0.25 × 16560 = Rs. 4,140

    Amount left = 16560 – 4140 = Rs. 12,420

    Money spent on animal shelter = 0.10 × 12420 = Rs. 1,242

    Final amount left = 12420 – 1242 = Rs. 11,178
