डेविड अपनी आय का 55% खर्च करता है। यदि वह ₹36,000 बचाता है, तो उसकी आय (₹ में) कितनी है?
Detailed Solution & Logic
Correct Answer:
80,000
David spends 55% of his income, so he saves 45%.
Savings = 45% of income = ₹36,000
Let income be $x$.
$45%$ of $x = 36000$
$\frac{45}{100} \times x = 36000$
$0.45x = 36000$
$x = \frac{36000}{0.45}$
$x = 80000$
Final Answer: ₹80,000
