Question 65
The monthly incomes of A and B are ₹12000 and ₹8000 respectively. The ratio of their monthly expenditures is 5 : 3. If they save equal amount per month, then how much money does each of them save per month?
Solution
The monthly incomes of A and B are ₹12000 and ₹8000.
Their expenditures are in the ratio of 5:3.
Let their expenditures of A and B be 5x and 3x.
Since their savings are equal ,
12000 - 5x = 8000 - 3x
x = 2000
Savings = 12000 - 5 $$\times$$ 2000 = 2000
So , the answer would be option d)2000.
