Sudha spends 80% of her income. Whenher income is increased by 30%, she increases her expenditure by 25%. Her savings are:
let sudha's income be 100 units therefore amount she expends is 80% of income i.e 80unitsÂ
after increment of 30% that is 30% of 100 units is 30 making her income to be 130 unitsÂ
expenditure before is 80 units so 25% of 80 units is 20 making her total expenditure to be 100 unitsÂ
hence, her saving now is 130-100= 30,
her saving earlier was 100-80=20Â
therefore difference in saving is 30-20=10 units
so percentage increase in saving = 10$$\div{20}$$ $$\times{100}$$
                           =50%
