Question 1011200: Out of his total income Hamza spends 20% on house rent and 70% of rest household expenditure.if he saves Rs1800,what is his total income? Answer by fractalier(6550) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Well if he spends 20% on rent and 70% of what's left (which is 80%) on household expenditures, then what he has left is
100% - 20% - (.70)(80%) = 24%
So 24% of his income is Rs 1800, thus we write
.24x = 1800
x = 1800/.24
x = Rs 7500
