    Out of his total income, Suresh spent 25% on groceries,

    15% on transport and 20% on house rent. If he spent 25% of the remaining on entertainment and saved the rest which is Rs. 900, then find his total income.
    A Rs. 2,500 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Rs. 3,000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Rs. 2,500 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Rs. 4,000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Let total income of Suresh be Rs. '100x' So, amount left after he spent part of it on groceries, transport and rent = 100x - (0.25 + 0.15 + 0.20) X 100x = Rs. '40x' So, 0.75 X 40x = 900 Or, x = (900/30) = 30 So, total income of Suresh = 100x = 100 X 30 = Rs. 3,000 Hence, option b.
