Question

income and savings are in ratio 11:2 expenditure 5346 find income and savings

Answer 1

Let the income be Rs. 11x
And the savings be Rs. 2x
.: expenditure = income - savings
= Rs. 11x - 2x
= Rs. 9x
But, expenditure = Rs. 5346
Then,
9x = 5346
x = 5346/9
.: x = 594
Hence, income = Rs. 11x = (11×594) = Rs. 6534
and savings = Rs. 2x = (2×594) = Rs. 1188

Answer 2

Let the income be 11x and savings be 2x,expenditure=Rs.5346

then

Income=Expenditure +Savings

11x=5346+2x

9x=5346

x=594

Income=Rs.6534

Savings =Rs.1188
