Answer 1

The Correct Option is D

Let's determine the total monthly salary of Kakade using the given statements:
Statement I: Kakade’s basic salary is Rs.100/- more than Madan’s salary, who also serves in Kakade’s company.
Statement II: Other allowance taken by Madan besides his basic salary is of Kakade’s salary.
Statement III: Madan’s basic salary is Rs.15000/- per month.
Analyze the statements:
Using Statement I:
- Kakade's basic salary is Rs.100/- more than Madan’s salary.
- We know Madan’s basic salary from Statement III is Rs.15000/-, so Kakade’s basic salary is Rs.15100/-.
Using Statement II:
- This statement says the other allowance taken by Madan is of Kakade’s salary.
- However, it does not specify the amount of Kakade’s other allowances or total salary.
Using Statement III:
- Madan’s basic salary is Rs.15000/- per month.
Conclusion:
- From Statements I and III, we can determine Kakade’s basic salary as Rs.15100/-, but not the total monthly salary because we don’t know Kakade’s other allowances.
- Statement II does not provide specific amounts needed to determine Kakade's total monthly salary.
Therefore, the correct answer is: D. Data insufficient.
