A man spent 1/2 of his money and then lost 1/4 of the remainder. He was left with Tk. 3,600. How much did he start with?

A 7200

B 8800

C 9600

D 10400

Solution

Correct Answer: Option C

Let,
He has TK. x
ATQ, x - x/2 - x/2×1/4 = 3600
or, x/2 - x/8 = 3600
or, (4x - x)/8 = 3600
∴ x = (3600×8)/3 = 9600
