A man spends 14 of his salary on food and 18 on transportation His salary is Rs 50000 i Find his total expenses as a fraction of the salary ii Find the amount o class=

Respuesta :

total expenses= 1/4 + 1/8

the denominators should be equal to add the values.

1/4×2(divide both the numerator and denominator by two)

=2/8

=2/8+1/8

3/8//

3/8(fraction of the salary he spent)

3/8 of the salary

3/8×50,000

R.s 6250

balance = 50,000-6,250

= R.s 43,750//
