Answer:

rs 200

Explanation:

10% of rs 2000

=
(10)/(100) × 2000

= 0.1 × 2000

= 200

given:

earns= rs 2000

gives= 10%

to find:

the amount he gave as charity.

solution:

let's consider the unknown as "x".


2000 = 100\%


x = 10\%


(2000)/(x) * (100)/(10)


(x)/(2000) * (10)/(100) (reciprocal)


x = 200

therefore, he gave rs 200 of his earnings as charity.
