Let his salary = 100
House Rent = 100 * 2/5 = 40
Food = 100 * 3/10 = 30
Conveyance = 100 * 1/8 = 12.5.
Total Salary = 100
Savings = 1400
100 - 40 + 30 + 12.5 = 1400
17.5 = 1400
1 = 1400/17.5
100 = (1400 * 100)/17.5 = 8000.
Total Salary = 8000.
Expenditure on food = 8000 * 3/10 = 2400.
Expenditure on conveyance = 8000 * 1/8 = 1000.
