Question

Out of the salary of Rs.123456, I saved half of it. From the remaining money, I spend 47% on food and 18% on rent. Calculate the amount spent on food and house rent?​

Answer 1

Amount spend on food: Rs 29012.16

Amount spend on rent: Rs 11111.04

Explanation:

We know

The salary is Rs.123456

You saved half of it

123456/2 = Rs 61728

So, you have Rs 61728 remaining

47% on food

47% = 0.47

61728 times 0.47 = Rs 29012.16

So, you spend Rs 29012.16 on food

18% on rent

18% = 0.18

61728 times 0.18 = Rs 11111.04

So, you spend Rs 11111.04 on rent

So,

Amount spend on food: Rs 29012.16

Amount spend on rent: Rs 11111.04
