Quantitative Aptitude (SBI-CL) Percentage

Rakesh had $ 2100 left after spending 30 % of the money he took for shopping. How much money did he take along with him?

$3500

$4000

$3000

$4500

Explanation:

Let the money he took for shopping be m.
Money he spent = 30 % of m
= 30/100 × m
= 3/10 m
Money left with him = m – 3/10 m = (10m – 3m)/10 = 7m/10
But money left with him = $ 2100
Therefore 7m/10 = $ 2100
m = $ 2100× 10/7
m = $ 21000/7
m = $ 3000
Therefore, the money he took for shopping is $ 3000.
