15% credited to FD account.
What remains is: 100 - 15 = 85%
30% of this is spent in groceries.
%age spent in groceries = 85%*30% = 25.5%
So total amount spent = 15% + 25.5% = 40.5% of his salary.
What is remaining finally: 100 - 40.5 = 59.5%

59.5% of his salary is 2389.
So, if his salary is x, 

So 
Salary = 4015.13
Hope you got it :)
