Let the initial amount of money be Rs z As it is mentioned that the person looses 20 1/2% means the person is left with = (z - $$frac{41}{2x100} imes z$$) = Rs 0.795 z And it is mentioned that after spending 80 % of the remainder he is left with only Rs 159 So, 0.795 z - $$frac{80}{100}$$ x 0.795z = 0.2 x 0.795 z = 159 z = Rs 1000
