Total amount spent on Cloth shopping = (3500 - 175 - 700) ×

100

= Rs.1837.5
Total amount spent on Footwear shopping
⇒ 3500 - (175 + 700 + 1837.5)
⇒ Rs.787.5
Amount spent on footwear = x% of Total amount
Total percentage of amount spent on (transport + food) = 25%
Precentage of amount spent on clothes = (100 - 25) × 70%
