- Kumar earns Rs 30,000 per month.

- He spends 25% on food and rent, which is Rs 7,500 (25% of 30,000).

- The remaining amount is Rs 22,500 (30,000 - 7,500).

- He spends 20% of this remaining amount on education, which is Rs 4,500 (20% of 22,500).

- Now, the remaining amount is Rs 18,000 (22,500 - 4,500).

- He pays 5% of his total salary as income tax, which is Rs 1,500 (5% of 30,000).

- After these deductions, his remaining amount is Rs 16,500 (18,000 - 1,500).

- He saves Rs 8,000, so the amount available after savings is Rs 8,500 (16,500 - 8,000).
