The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step by step, we will calculate Gayatri's expenses and the money left with her after paying for house rent and her child's education. ### Step 1: Calculate Gayatri's House Rent Gayatri's annual income is Rs. 1,60,000. She pays 15% of this amount as house rent. **Calculation:** \[ \text{House Rent} = 15\% \text{ of } 1,60,000 = \frac{15}{100} \times 1,60,000 \] \[ = 0.15 \times 1,60,000 = 24,000 \] ### Step 2: Calculate the Remaining Income After House Rent Now, we will subtract the house rent from her total income to find out how much money she has left. **Calculation:** \[ \text{Remaining Income} = \text{Total Income} - \text{House Rent} \] \[ = 1,60,000 - 24,000 = 1,36,000 \] ### Step 3: Calculate the Cost of Child's Education Gayatri pays 10% of the remaining income on her child's education. **Calculation:** \[ \text{Child's Education Cost} = 10\% \text{ of } 1,36,000 = \frac{10}{100} \times 1,36,000 \] \[ = 0.10 \times 1,36,000 = 13,600 \] ### Step 4: Calculate the Money Left After Education Expenses Finally, we will subtract the cost of the child's education from the remaining income after paying the house rent. **Calculation:** \[ \text{Money Left} = \text{Remaining Income} - \text{Child's Education Cost} \] \[ = 1,36,000 - 13,600 = 1,22,400 \] ### Final Answer The money left with Gayatri after paying for house rent and her child's education is Rs. 1,22,400. ---
