The incomes of A and B are in the ratio 3 : 2 and their expenditures are in the ratio 5:3. If each saves Rs. 1000, then A’s income is
As incomes of A and B are in the ratio 3 : 2. So , assume incomes of A and B be 3z and 2z respectively
As the expenditure are in the ratio 5:3. So assume expenditure of A and B be 5y and 3y respectively
Now it is given that every one saves Rs 1000
3z - 5y = 1000 ..........(1)
2z - 3y = 1000..........(2)
Solving equations 1 and 2
y = Rs 1000
z = Rs 2000
hence income of A = 3z = 3 x 2000 = Rs 6000
