The correct Answer is:
To find the total monthly salary of the man, we can break down the problem step by step. ### Step 1: Define the Monthly Salary Let the total monthly salary be \( S \). ### Step 2: Calculate House Rent The man spends 10% of his salary on house rent: \[ \text{House Rent} = 0.10 \times S = 0.1S \] ### Step 3: Calculate Remaining Salary After Rent After paying the house rent, the remaining salary is: \[ \text{Remaining Salary} = S - 0.1S = 0.9S \] ### Step 4: Calculate Education Expenses He spends 20% of the remaining salary on education: \[ \text{Education Expenses} = 0.20 \times (0.9S) = 0.18S \] ### Step 5: Calculate Remaining Salary After Education After paying for education, the remaining salary is: \[ \text{Remaining Salary} = 0.9S - 0.18S = 0.72S \] ### Step 6: Calculate Other Expenditures He spends 25% of the remaining salary on other expenditures: \[ \text{Other Expenditures} = 0.25 \times (0.72S) = 0.18S \] ### Step 7: Calculate Remaining Salary After All Expenditures After all expenditures, the remaining salary (which is his savings) is: \[ \text{Savings} = 0.72S - 0.18S = 0.54S \] ### Step 8: Set Up the Equation We know that his savings amount to Rs. 3645: \[ 0.54S = 3645 \] ### Step 9: Solve for \( S \) To find \( S \), divide both sides by 0.54: \[ S = \frac{3645}{0.54} = 6750 \] ### Final Answer The total monthly salary is: \[ \boxed{6750} \] ---
