Detailed Solution

Given, Mohan's income is Rs 15500 per month. He saves 11%. of his income.
His income increases by 10%, then he reduces his savings by 1%
Salary before incrementing = Rs 15500.
Savings = 11% of 15500.
We know that a% of b = a100×b where a and b are real numbers.
Savings = 11100×15500
Savings = Rs. 1705
Salary after incrementing = 15500 + 10% of 15500.
Salary after incrementing = 15500+10100(15500)
Salary after incrementing = 15500 + 1550
Salary after incrementing = Rs. 17050
Saving after increment = 10% of 17050.
Saving after increment = 10100(17050)
Saving after increment = Rs. 1705
The new saving is Rs. 1705.
Hence, option 1 is correct.
