Question

Out of a total deposit of ₹ 1500 in her bank account, Abida withdrew 40% of the deposit. Now the balance in her account is ______.

Answer 1

Out of a total deposit of ₹ 1500 in her bank account, Abida withdrew 40% of the deposit. Now the balance in her account is ₹ 900.

Explanation:

From the question,

Total deposit in Abida’s account = ₹ 1500

Percentage of amount Abida withdrew = 40%

Then, amount withdrew = 40% of ₹ 1500

= ${\displaystyle \frac{40}{100}\times 1500}$

= ${\displaystyle \frac{60000}{100}}$

= ₹ 600

Then, the remaining amount in the account = ₹ 1500 – ₹ 600 = ₹ 900.
