4.
If the interest on loans amounted to Rs. 2.45 crores then the total amount of expenditure on advertisement, taxes and research and development is?
Answer: Option
Explanation:
Let the total expenditure be Rs. x crores.
Then, 17.5% of x = 2.45 
x = 14.
Total expenditure = Rs. 14 crores.
and so, the total expenditure on advertisement, taxes and Research and Development
= Rs. [(15 + 10 + 5)% of 14] crores
= Rs. [30% of 14] crores
= Rs. 4.2 crores.

(interest on loans is 17.5%),( total expenditure on advertisement, taxes and Research and Development is 30%).
17.5 = 2.45,
30 = ?(x),
x = 4.2.
17.5 = 2.45,
30 = ?(x),
x = 4.2.
