Study the following pie chart, which shows the expenditure distribution of a fixed family, and answer the given question. If the expenditure budget of the family is 18,000 per month. So what will be the monthly expenditure on entertainment, clothing and transportation of all the three items? Correct Answer Rs 5400
Given:
Total expenditure = Rs. 18,000
Percentage expenditure on entertainment = 10%
Percentage expenditure on clothing = 10%
Percentage expenditure on transportation = 10%
Calculation:
According to the question,
Expenditure on entertainment = 18000 × 10%
⇒ 1800
Expenditure on clothing = 18000 × 10%
⇒ 1800
Expenditue on transportation = 18000 × 10%
⇒ 1800
Total expenditure = 1800 + 1800 + 1800
⇒ 5400
∴ The required monthly expenditure is Rs. 5400.
