    Certificate  and spend 80% of the remaining amount on household items. If the cash in hand is Rs. 5550, what is her salary?
    A Rs. 37000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Rs. 40000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Rs. 45000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Rs. 48000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Let her salary be Rs. A, So, A - 25 % of A - 80% of 75% of A = 5550 ⇒ A - 25A/100 - (80 x 75 x A)/(100 x 100) = 5550 ⇒ 100A - 25A - 60A = 5550 x 100 ⇒ 15A = 555000 ∴ A = 555000/15 = Rs. 37000
