(A) 2500
(B) 4500
(C) 6000
(D) 4000
Correct Answer is: C
Let the money he took for shopping be x.
Money he spent = 40 % of x
= 40/100 × x
= 4/10 x
Money left with him = x – 4/10 x = (10x – 4x)/10 = 6x/10
But money left with him = 3600
Therefore 6x/10 = 3600
x = 3600× 10/6
x = 36000/6
x = 6000
Therefore, the money he took for shopping is 6000.
