The incomes of A of B are in the ratio 3:2 and their expenditure are in the ratio 5:3 if each saves rupees 2000, what is their income?
a) 32000
b) 20000
c) 1190
d) 8000
e) None of these

1 Answer

Answer :

Let the income be 3x and 2x. It is given that the saving of each is Rs. 2000.
Then, their expenditures are 3x – 2000 and 2x – 2000
Again, (3x – 2000)/(2x – 2000) = 5/3
=> 3(3x – 2000) = 5(2x – 2000)
=> 9x – 6000 = 10x – 10000
=> 9x -10x = -10000+ 6000
=> -x = -4000
=> x = 4000
Therefore, their salaries are 3 x 4000 = 12000 and 2 x 4000 = 8000
