Q:

A man’s average monthly expenditure for the first four months of the year was Rs. 231.25. For the next five months, the average monthly expenditure was Rs. 22.75 more than what it was during the first four months. If the person spent Rs. 605 in all during the remaining three months of the year, find what percentage of his annual income of Rs. 3500 did he save in the year?

A) 10% B) 15%
C) 20% D) 25%
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 20%

Explanation:

A man's average monthly expenditure for the first four months of the year = Rs.231.25.
For four month = 231.25 * 4 = Rs. 925
For next five month he spend = 231.25 + 22.75 for one month.
In five month he spend = (231.25 + 22.75) X 5 = 1270
If the person spent Rs. 605 in all during the remaining three months of the year,
Total expense = 925+1270+605= 2800
Saving = 3500-2800 = 700
% saving = 700/3500 * 100 = 20%
