Solution :
Rima's monthly salary is INR 27,500.
Rima spends 35% of her monthly income on food.
So, remaining salary = $\frac{100-35}{100}×27500=17875$
She spends 15% of the rest on clothes.
So, after that, she has = $\frac{100-15}{100}×17875=15193.75$
She saves 40% of the remaining income.
So, her savings = $\frac{40}{100}×15193.75=6077.5$
Hence, the correct answer is 6077.50.
