C) I and II together ( D) I, II and III together
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) I, II and III together

Explanation:

From III, we have : Rajan's basic salary = Rs 1550.

From I,   we have : Vasu's basic salary = Rs (1550 + 100) =  Rs 1650.

From II.  we have : Rajan's other allowances = RS 2000

             and Vasu's other allowances = Rs 2050.

Vasu's monthly salary is (1650 + 2050) = Rs 3700.

Thus, all the three statements are required.

A) 383 B) 338
C) 84.5 D) 253.5

40% of 265 + 35% of 180 = 50% ?

 

25 x 265 + 35% of 180 = 50% ?

 

We know that (35% of 180 = 180% of 35) & 180% = 95

 

25 x 265 + 95 x 35 = 50% ?

 

106 + 63 = 50% ?

 

?= 2 x 169 = 338.
