Pihu's monthly income = Rs. 39,500

Income spent on household expenditures = $$\frac{9}{20} \times 39500$$

= $$9 \times 1975 = Rs. 17,775$$

Amount spent on school fees = $$\frac{24}{100} \times 39500$$

= $$24 \times 395 = Rs. 9,480$$

Income left = 39500 - 17775 - 9480 = Rs. 12,245

Now, % amount donated to NGO = 40%

Thus, amount left = $$\frac{60}{100} \times 12245 = Rs. 7,347$$
