Faisal gave 1/3 of a salary to his mother and spent 2/5 of the remaining himself. If his monthly salary is Rs. 21,000/-, the amount he spent himself?

Answer: Rs. 5,600/-
Explanation

Faisal gave 1/3 of his salary to his mother, which is 21,000 × 1/3 = Rs. 7,000.

The remaining salary after giving to his mother is 21,000 - 7,000 = Rs. 14,000.

He spent 2/5 of the remaining amount: 14,000 × 2/5 = Rs. 5,600.
