Abhay gave 30% of his money to Vijay. Vijay gave $\frac{2}{3} r d$ of what he received to his mother. Vijay's mother gave $\frac{5}{8} t h$ of the money, she received from Vijay to the grocer. Vijay's mother is now left with ₹600. How much money did Abhay have initially?

[SBI (PO), 2015]

₹ 6200

₹ 8000

₹ 6000

₹ 8200

₹ 10200

Explanation

Here,

Vijay's mother is left with Rs.600

and $1 - \frac{5}{8} = 600 \Rightarrow \frac{3}{8} = 600 \Rightarrow 1 = R s 600 N o w, \frac{2}{3} = 1600 \Rightarrow 1 = 2400$

This is 30% of total money what Abhay had.

So, 30%=2400

$∴ 100 % = \frac{2400}{30} \times 100 = R s 800$

Hence, Option B is correct.
