let wife salary be x and man salary be x+600
then according to question
1/10(x+600)+1/6 (x)=1500
=x/10+60+x/6=1500
after taking lcm of 6and 10
6x+10x/60=1500-60
16x/60=1440
16x=1440×60
16x=8640
x=540
wife salary =540
men salary =540+600=1140
their total salary = 1140+540=1680
monthly expenses =total salary-savings
=1680-1500=180
then according to question
1/10(x+600)+1/6 (x)=1500
=x/10+60+x/6=1500
after taking lcm of 6and 10
6x+10x/60=1500-60
16x/60=1440
16x=1440×60
16x=8640
x=540
wife salary =540
men salary =540+600=1140
their total salary = 1140+540=1680
monthly expenses =total salary-savings
=1680-1500=180
