Any leftover amount for covid-19 safety measures. •5. Rate of leftover amount to total budget

Answer 1

Answer: Let's break down the budget into different categories:

Furniture: 15% of the budget

15% of Rs. 53000 = Rs. 7950

So you can spend Rs. 7950 on furniture.

Cosmetics: 25% of the budget

25% of Rs. 53000 = Rs. 13250

So your cosmetics bill from Makeup4uonline is Rs. 13250.

Appliances: 15% of the budget at 20% discount

15% of Rs. 53000 = Rs. 7950

The appliances are at a 20% discount, so you only need to pay 80% of the price:

80% of Rs. 7950 = Rs. 6360

So you can spend Rs. 6360 on appliances.

Electric works: 5% of the total budget which is 12% of wall décor and lights

12% of the budget = 12/100 x Rs. 53000 = Rs. 6360

5% of the budget = 5/100 x Rs. 53000 = Rs. 2650

So you can spend Rs. 6360 on wall décor and lights, and Rs. 2650 on electric works.

Leftover amount for COVID-19 safety measures

The total amount spent so far is:

Rs. 7950 + Rs. 13250 + Rs. 6360 + Rs. 2650 = Rs. 30110

So the leftover amount for COVID-19 safety measures is:

Rs. 53000 - Rs. 30110 = Rs. 22890

Rate of leftover amount to total budget

The rate of leftover amount to total budget is:

(Rs. 22890 / Rs. 53000) x 100% = 43.2%

So 43.2% of the total budget is leftover for COVID-19 safety measures.
