The pie-chart given below shows expenditure incurred by a family on various items and their savings. Study the chart and answer the questions based on the pie-chart
If the expenditure on education is 1600 more than that on housing, then the expenditure on food is :
Let total income = 360$$x$$
Expenditure on education = $$\frac{70}{360} * 360x = 70x$$
Expenditure on housing = $$\frac{54}{360} * 360x = 54x$$
=> Required difference = $$70x - 54x$$ = 1600
=> $$x$$ = 100
Expenditure on food = $$\frac{120}{360} * 360x = 120x$$
=> 120*100 = 12000
