Directions(6-10): The following Pi – chart represents the breakup of Sudhir’s monthly expenditure / expenses :


6. Sudhir spent 20 % of his expenditure on others, on entertainment; this amounted to Rs.2500. Find his expenditure on Transport ?
   Rs. 5000
   Rs. 7000
   Rs. 6000
   Rs. 4000
   Rs. 2000
   Option D
   25 % of 20 % of x = 2500
   => 5 % × x = 2500
   => x = 50,000
   Expenditure on Transport
   = 50000*8/100
   = Rs. 4000

    

7. As price dropped, Sudhir’s expenditure on Food, dropped by 10 %, As a result of this, expenditure on others increased from 12,000 to 12,500. So the current expense on Food is approximately what percentage of current expenses on others?
   44%
   30%
   46%
   52%
   3%
   Option E
   10 % × x = 12500 – 12000
   => x = 5000 % in Food
   Required % = (4500*100)/12500
   = 36%

    

8. If Sudhir increased his savings, which is currently 15 % of his income, by 20 % and reduced his expenses by 10 %, then his savings would be what percent of his expenses ?
   20
   32
   18
   24
   15
   Option D
   Let income = 100
   Present saving = 15
   Expenditure = 85
   Now, he increased income by 20 % and reduced his expenditure by 10 %
   18/76.5*100
   = 23.59 == 24

    

9. Find the angle made by Food, Transport and Gym together ?
   100 deg.
   150 deg.
   80 deg.
   120 deg.
   180 deg.
   Option E
   (20+8+22)/100 * 360 deg.
   = 50/100*360 = 180 deg.

    

10. If Sudhir spent Rs. 6800 more on Education and Rent together then he spent on Transport, find his monthly expenses?
    Rs.60,000
    Rs.70,000
    Rs.90,000
    Rs.50,000
    Rs.40,000
    Option E
    (25% – 8%)x = 6800
    => 17%x = 6800
    => x = 40,000
    Monthly income = Rs.40,000
