Problem Analysis:
The question asks us to find the amount Anubhav spent on electricity bills, given the percentages spent on different items (electricity, rent, shopping) and a specific value related to the remaining income.
First, find the total percentage of income Anubhav spent on the mentioned items:
Total Spent Percentage = % Electricity + % Rent + % Shopping
Total Spent Percentage = \(14\% + 28\% + 18\%\)
Total Spent Percentage = \(60\%\)
Next, calculate the percentage of income remaining:
Remaining Percentage = \(100\% - \text{Total Spent Percentage}\)
Remaining Percentage = \(100\% - 60\%\)
Remaining Percentage = \(40\%\)
We are told that $\frac{1}{4}$ of the remaining amount is ₹5120. The remaining amount represents 40% of the total income. Therefore:
\(\frac{1}{4} \times 40\% \times \text{Total Income} = ₹5120\)
\(10\% \times \text{Total Income} = ₹5120\)
We need to find the amount spent on electricity, which is 14% of the total income.
We know that 10% of the income is ₹5120.
So, 1% of the income = \(\frac{₹5120}{10} = ₹512\)
Now, calculate the spending on electricity (14%):
Electricity Spending = \(14 \times (1\% \text{ of Income})\)
Electricity Spending = \(14 \times ₹512\)
Electricity Spending = \(₹7168\)
Answer: Anubhav spent ₹7168 on electricity bills.
