house rent. After that he is left with ₹ 2940. How much is his salary ?

Let man’s salary be P.

∴ His expenditure on items of daily use =	25	% of P
	2

His expenditure =	25 × P	= ₹	P
	200		8

So, remaining amount = P -	P	= ₹	7P
	8		8

Expenditure on house rent = 30% of ₹	7P
	8

Expenditure on house rent =	30	×	7P
	100		8

= ₹	21P
	80

Now, remaining amount =	70P - 21P	= ₹	49P
	80		80

According to the question,

∴	49P	= 2940
	80

⇒ P =	2940 × 80	= ₹ 4800
	49

Here , p = 25 / 2 % , q = 26.25% and R = ₹ 2940
We can find the required answer with the help of given formula ,

His salary =	100 × 2940
	100 - (12.5 + 26.25)

His salary =	294000	= ₹ 4800
	61.25
