    E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    ATQ,

    Money spent on groceries = 0.25 × 15000 = Rs. 3,750

    Amount left = 15000 – 3750 = Rs. 11,250

    Money spent on clothes = 0.10 × 11250 = Rs. 1,125

    Money left = 11250 – 1125 = Rs. 10,125

    Money spent on travel = 0.20 × 10125 = Rs. 2,025

    So, the final bonus left with the man = 10125 – 2025 = Rs. 8,100
