Dont worry brother . actually it is something that depends solely on person . if you go for a shared room and adjust with mess food . you can have approximate savings as per your wish . insha allah

I think you could probably live on 500 SR if you lived here without your family and shared a tiny apartment with someone, but apartments are expensive and you would stil have to spend a significant amount for rent. I don't think it would be possible to live on 3000 SAR here in Riyadh with your family, let alone save money.
