Ram spends 30% of his salary on house rent, 30% of the rest he spends on his children's education and 24% of the total salary he spends on clothes. After his expenditure, he is left with Rs. 2500. What is Ram's salary?	Select
A) Rs. 11,494.25	B) Rs. 20,000	C) Rs. 10,000	D) Rs. 15,000	E) None of these
Solution: Let Ram's salary be x.   He spends on rent = 30% of x = 30x/100.   He spends on education = 30% from rest of the salary= (30*70x)/(100*100) = 21x/100.   He Spends on clothes = 24% of total salary = 24x/100.   Saving = 2500.   Salary of ram = x.   (30x/100) + (21x/100) + (24x/100) + 2500 = x.   (75x/100) = x-2500.   75x = 100x-250000.   Or, 100x-77x = 250000.   Or, x = 250000/25.   Or, x = 10000.   Ram's salary = Rs. 10000.   Answer: Option Rs. 10,000
