A person spends 30.1\% of his monthly income on groceries. From the remaining amount, he spends 20.1\% on rent. Then, he uses $$$\frac{1}{4}$$$ of the remaining income for EMI payments. If he saves Rs 1260 after all these expenses, what is his approximate monthly income?

Question

Accepted Answer

**Solution:**

1. Let the monthly income be $x$.

2. Amount spent on groceries = 30.1\% of $x$ = $0.301x$.

3. Remaining income after groceries = $x - 0.301x = 0.699x$.

4. Amount spent on rent = 20.1\% of remaining = $0.201 $$\times$$ 0.699x = 0.140499x$.

5. Remaining income after rent = $0.699x - 0.140499x = 0.558501x$.

6. Amount spent on EMI = $$$\frac{1}{4}$$$ of remaining = $$$\frac{1}{4} \times 0.558501x = 0.13962525x$$$.

7. Remaining income after EMI (which is savings) = $0.558501x - 0.13962525x = 0.41887575x$.

8. Given savings = Rs 1260, so:
   $$
   0.41887575x = 1260
   $$

9. Solving for $x$:
   $$
   $$x = \frac{1260}{0.41887575} \approx 3008$$
   $$

10. The closest approximate monthly income is Rs 3000.

**Answer:** Rs $3000$
