  4. None of these
Explanation

Let's denote the total scholarship grant as "x".

The student spends:

  • 15% on food: 0.15x
  • 45% on tuition: 0.45x

So, after these expenses, he has:

x - 0.15x - 0.45x = 0.4x remaining.

He then spends 50% of this remaining amount on hostel fees:

0.5 * 0.4x = 0.2x

After this, he is left with Rs 8,000. So, we can set up the equation:

0.4x - 0.2x = 8000

Simplifying the equation:

0.2x = 8000

Dividing both sides by 0.2:

x = 40000

Therefore, the student's scholarship grant is Rs 40,000.
