Q:

Sairam spent Rs. 38460 on the renovation of his home and Rs. 24468 on buying TV set and remained with 28% of the total amount. What was the total amount?

A) Rs. 87400 B) Rs. 68700
C) Rs. 74000 D) Rs. 94060
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) Rs. 87400

Explanation:

Let the total amount he had with = Rs. p

From the given data,

p - 38460 - 24468 = 28p/100

p - 28p/100 = 24468 + 38460

72p/100 = 62928

72p = 62928 x 100

p = 62928 x 100/72

p = 87400

 

Hence, the total amount he had = p = Rs. 87400.
