Total Expenditure Calculation: First, let's determine the total percentage of the salary that X spends. Total Expenditure % = 30% (rent) + 25% (food) + 15% (med......

💡 Analysis & Explanation

Total Expenditure Calculation ▼

First, let's determine the total percentage of the salary that X spends. Total Expenditure % = 30% (rent) + 25% (food) + 15% (medical) + 16% (others).

Summing the Percentages ▼

$30 + 25 + 15 + 16 = 86\%$. So, X spends 86% of his total salary.

Savings Equivalence ▼

The remaining percentage represents his savings. Savings % = $100\% - 86\% = 14\%$. We are given that his actual savings amount to ₹42,000. Therefore, 14% of Total Salary = ₹42,000.

Final Calculation ▼

Total Salary = $42000 \times (100 / 14) = 3000 \times 100 = 3,00,000$.

Conclusion ▼

His monthly salary is ₹3,00,000.
