ANSWER:
Given:
- Ratio of monthly incomes of Amit and Atul = 6:5
- Ratio of monthly expenditure of Amit and Atul = 5:4
- Saving of both of them = Rs 2500/month
To Find:
- Their monthly incomes
Solution:
Let the monthly incomes of Amit and Atul be 6x and 5x respectively and let their monthly expenditures be 5y and 4y respectively.
We know that,
⇒ Savings = Income - Expenditure
So,
⇒ Savings of Amit = Amit's income - Amit's expenditure
⇒ 2500 = 6x - 5y
⇒ 6x - 5y = 2500 --------(1)
And,
⇒ Savings of Atul = Atul's income - Atul's expenditure
⇒ 2500 = 5x - 4y
⇒ 5x - 4y = 2500 --------(2)
Now, multiplying (1) by 4 and (2) by 5, so that variable y can be eliminated.
Hence,
⇒ (6x - 5y = 2500) × 4
⇒ 4×6x - 4×5y = 4×2500
⇒ 24x - 20y = 10000 --------(3)
And,
⇒ (5x - 4y = 2500) × 5
⇒ 5×5x - 5×4y = 5×2500
⇒ 25x - 20y = 12500 --------(4)
Subtracting (3) from (4),
⇒ (25x - 20y) - (24x - 20y) = 12500 - 10000
⇒ 25x - 20y - 24x + 20y = 2500
⇒ 25x - 24x - 20y + 20y = 2500
⇒ x = 2500
So,
- Amit's monthly income = 6x = 6×2500 = 15000
- Atul's monthly income = 5x = 5×2500 = 12500
Hence, the monthly incomes of Amit and Atul are Rs 15000 and Rs 12500 respectively.
Formula Used:
- Savings = Income - Expenditure
