Respuesta :

Answer:

Rs. 4,444

Step-by-step explanation:

Let her pocket money be represented as A

She spent 25% of A on her clothes and 11% on shoes and then saved Rs. 1600

Total percentage spent = 25 + 11 = 36%

So, she spent 36% of A and was left with Rs. 1600

This can be represented by the equation below

36% of A = 1600

36/100 x A = 1600

0.36 x A = 1600

Divide both sides by 0.36

0.36/0.36 A = 1600/0.36

A = 4444.44

A = Rs. 4,444

Her pocket money was approximately Rs. 4,444
