    Out of her total income, Pooja spent 10% on groceries,

    15% on transport and 25% on rent. If she spent 40% of the remaining on entertainment and saved the rest which is Rs. 750, then find her total income.
    A Rs. 2,500 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Rs. 3,000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Rs. 3,500 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Rs. 4,000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Let total income of Pooja be Rs. '100x' So, amount left after she spent part of it on groceries, transport and rent = 100x - (0.10 + 0.15 + 0.25) X 100x = Rs. '50x' So, 0.60 X 50x = 750 Or, x = (750/30) = 25 So, total income of Pooja = 100x = 100 X 25 = Rs. 2,500 Hence, option a.
