Answer»

Solution

Let Mary's monthly salary = Rs. $100x$

Money spent on EMI = $\frac{15}{100} \times 100x = 15x$

Amount left = $100x - 15x = 85X$

% amount left after paying INTERNET BILL and rent = $100 - (10 + 20) = 70 \%$

=> Amount left = $\frac{70}{100} \times 85x = 24,990$

=> $\frac{7 \times 17x}{2} = 24,990$

=> $X = \frac{24,990 \times 2}{7 \times 17}$

=> $x = 210 \times 2 = 420$

$\therefore$ Mary's monthly salary = $100 \times 42$ = Rs. $42,000$
