    15% of the remaining income on clothing, and saved the rest. If he would have spent Rs. 200 more on food and Rs. 500 more on clothing, then how much had he saved?
    A Rs. 30,150 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Rs. 32,250 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Rs. 33,225 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Rs. 31,175 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Amount spent on food = 50000 × 0.25 = Rs. 12,500 Remaining income after food expenses = 50000 - 12500 = Rs. 37,500 Amount spent on clothing = 37500 × 0.15 = Rs. 5,625 Increased food expense = 12500 + 200 = Rs. 12,700 Increased clothing expense = 5625 + 500 = Rs. 6,125 Amount saved = 50000 - (12700 + 6125) = 50000 - 18825 = Rs. 31,175
