Question

Hans and bhaskar have salaries that jointly amount to 10,000 per month. They spend the same amount monthly and then it is found that the ratio of their savings is 6 : 1. Which of the followingcan be hans's salary?

Answer 1

h=6000 and b=4000

So, x=3600

Equations are satisfiedIf amount spent is equal then if the ratio of their savings is to be greater than 1(in this case 6/1=6)

Then Hans' salary must be greater than Baskrs salary

Only option 1 satisfies this1 year agoHelpfull: Yes(3) No(0) a is the answer because hans salary must be greater than bhaskar1 year agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(0) it's easy to solve through options ... so tick to A1 year agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)

Answer 2

Answer:6000

Step-by-step explanation:

Monthly expenditure is same for both, hence the given ratio depends on the actual division of their salary                                       --(1)

The given ratio: 6:1                                                       --(2)

From (1) and (2), Hans has higher salary than Bhaskar

Therefore Hans' Salary is greater than 5000

verify the options, 6000 is suitable

Verification:

6000+4000= 10000

let 'a' be their monthly expenditure

given, (6000-a)/(4000-a)=6/1

by solving, a= 3600

(6000-3600)/(4000-3600)=6/1

If there were multiple options greater than 5000, Trial and Error would help
