Varun got a monthly increment of 12 percent of Puja's monthly salary. Puja's monthly salary is Rs. 7800. Varun's monthly salary before increment was Rs. 6400. What amount will he earn in four months after his increment ?

A) Rs. 29344
B) Rs. 29434
C) Rs. 28434
D) Rs. 28344

Correct Answer:

A) Rs. 29344

Description for Correct answer:
Monthly increase in salary of Varun

\( \Large \frac{7800 \times 12}{100} = Rs. 936 \)

\( \Large \therefore \ New \ monthly \ salary \ of \ Varun = 6400 + 936 \)

\( \Large = Rs. 7336 \)

\( \Large \ Required \ income = 4 \times 7336 = Rs. 29344 \)
