Solution

The correct option is B 225 dollars
Violet's monthly salary = 3000 dollars

25% of the salary is used for the house loan.

Money needed for house loan
=25100×3000

= 750 dollars

∴ Remaining money = 3000 – 750 = 2250 dollars

She wants to save 10% of the money in her savings account.

So, money saved in her savings account
=10100×2250

= 225 dollars

Hence, Violet will add 225 dollars to her savings account.
