Question 3
A person spends 40% of his salary on his educational expenses. He spends 60% of it in purchasing books and one-half of the remaining in purchasing stationery items. If he saves Rs 160 every month, which is one-fourth of the balance after spending over books and stationery items, what is his monthly salary?

B
Rs 4800
C
Rs 9600
D

Let his monthly salary be (s)
40% on education expenses  = 0.4s
=> 0.4s x 60/100 = 0.24s is on purchasing books
=> ½ ( 0.4 – 0.24) = 0.08s is on stationary items
=> So money left will be 0.4s – ( 0.24s + 0.08s)= Rs 0.08s
Now Acc. to the 2nd statement
1/4 ( 0.08s) =160
=> 160 x 4/0.08 = Rs 8000

Question 4 Explanation: 
The mixture is of 6 x (25/100) + 4 x (30/100) = 270/100
Therefore for 10 parts = (270 x 10)/100=27%
