Answer:
Explanation:
Let's break down the information provided in the problem:
The man spends 2/3 of his high salary on rent and food.
This means that he has 1/3 of his salary remaining.
He then spends 1/4 of this remaining amount on transportation.
He has 6000 rupees left.
To solve for the amount he pays on transportation, we can use the following steps:
Calculate the amount of money he has left after spending 2/3 of his salary on rent and food:
Remaining amount = (1/3) * high salary
Calculate the amount he spends on transportation using the information that he spends 1/4 of the remaining amount:
Transportation cost = (1/4) * remaining amount
Substitute the value of remaining amount from step 1 into step 2:
Transportation cost = (1/4) * [(1/3) * high salary]
We are given that the man has 6000 rupees left, so we can set the equation above equal to 6000 and solve for high salary:
(1/4) * [(1/3) * high salary] = 6000
Simplifying the equation above:
(1/12) * high salary = 6000
Solving for high salary:
high salary = 6000 * 12 = 72000
Finally, substituting high salary from step 6 into step 3 to find transportation cost:
Transportation cost = (1/4) * [(1/3) * 72000] = 6000
Therefore, the man pays 6000 rupees on transportation.
