Jambmaths question:
A man earns N3,500 per month out of which he spends 15% on his children’s education. If he spend 15% on his additional N 1950 on food, how much does he have left?
Option A:
N 525
Option B:
N 1025
Option C:
N 1950
Option D:
N 2975
Jamb Maths Solution:
15% of the man’s salary is $\frac{15}{100}\times 3500=525$
So the man spends N 525 on his children’s education . The amount he spend on food is N1950
Total expenditure = N 1950 + N 525 = N 2475
What is left of the man salary is N 3500 – N 2475 = N 1025
