Ranbir decided to donate 18% of his salary to an old age home. On the last day to decide to donate only 3/7 th of the previously decided amount. If he donated Rs. 1350, what was his salary?
Correct Answer: Option D
Let Ranbir’s Salary be Rs. X, then,
⇒ Previously decided amount of donation = 18% of salary
= 18/100 x
Find donated amount (3/7)th of previously decided amount
= (3/7) × (18/100) x
As per question this value is equal to Rs.1350
∴1350 = (3/7) × (18/100) x
∴x = (1350 × 7 × 100)/(3 ×18)
= Rs.17500
