Hemant deposits 10% of his salary in PF. He saves 30% of the remaining salary. The ratio of his expense on medicine and groceries is 3:4 of the remaining salary after saving. If his expense on the medicine was Rs. 2700, then find his monthly salary.

Solution

Hemant's Monthly Salary Calculation

Step 1: Let Hemant's monthly salary be x.

He deposits 10% in PF ⇒ PF = 0.10x

Remaining salary after PF = 0.90x

Step 2: Savings

He saves 30% of the remaining ⇒ Savings = 0.30 × 0.90x = 0.27x

Remaining after savings = 0.90x - 0.27x = 0.63x

Step 3: Expenses on Medicine and Groceries

The ratio is given: Medicine : Groceries = 3 : 4

Total ratio parts = 3 + 4 = 7

Medicine = (3/7) × 0.63x = 0.27x

Step 4: Given that medicine expense = Rs. 2700

0.27x = 2700

x = 2700 ÷ 0.27 = ₹10,000

✅ Final Answer: ₹10,000
