The correct Answer is:
To find out how much money Amit has left after his expenditures, we will follow these steps: 1. **Calculate the amount spent on food:** Amit spends \( \frac{1}{4} \) of his income on food. \[ \text{Amount spent on food} = \frac{1}{4} \times 32000 = 8000 \] 2. **Calculate the remainder after food expenses:** \[ \text{Remainder after food} = 32000 - 8000 = 24000 \] 3. **Calculate the amount spent on house rent:** Amit spends \( \frac{3}{10} \) of the remainder on house rent. \[ \text{Amount spent on house rent} = \frac{3}{10} \times 24000 = 7200 \] 4. **Calculate the remainder after house rent expenses:** \[ \text{Remainder after house rent} = 24000 - 7200 = 16800 \] 5. **Calculate the amount spent on children's education:** Amit spends \( \frac{5}{21} \) of the remainder on children's education. \[ \text{Amount spent on education} = \frac{5}{21} \times 16800 = 4000 \] 6. **Calculate the final amount left:** \[ \text{Final amount left} = 16800 - 4000 = 12800 \] Thus, the amount of money Amit has left after all his expenditures is **Rs. 12,800**.
