Aman spends 10% of his salary on food. He spends 20% of the remaining part on fuel. If he is left with ₹4680, then what is his salary?
let the salary be 100x
he spends 10% of his salary for food
that means
$$100x\times\ \frac{10}{100}$$
he spends 10x rupees for food
so the remaining amount is 90x
from this remaining amount 20% is spent for fuel
that means $$\frac{20}{100}\times90x$$=18x
remaining is 100x-(18x+10x)
=72x
given that remaining amount is eual to 4680
72x=4680
x=65
therefore the salary is 100x so 100(65)
6500
hence answer is option D
