    From Rs. 16,500, a boy gave 15% to a library fund, 10%

    of the remaining amount to a sports club, and 20% of the next remaining to his college fund. What amount does he have left?
    A 15028 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 26320 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 17530 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 10098 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    ATQ,

    Amount given to library fund = 0.15 × 16500 = Rs. 2,475

    Remaining amount = 16500 – 2475 = Rs. 14,025

    Amount given to sports club = 0.10 × 14025 = Rs. 1,402.50

    Remaining amount = 14025 – 1402.50 = Rs. 12,622.50

    Amount given to college fund = 0.20 × 12622.50 = Rs. 2,524.50

    Amount left with the boy = 12622.50 – 2524.50 = Rs. 10,098
