Question

15. The ratio of income to savings of a family is 11 : 2. Find the expenditure if the savings is
1520.

​

Answer 1

Answer:

let the income =11x

so, saving =2x

saving = 1520. (given)

2x = 1520

x = 1520/2

x = 760

so income =11x = 11 x 760= 8360

expenditure = income - saving

= 8360-1520

= 6840
