The ratio of incomes of A and B is 3 : 2 or incomes ofA and B are 3x, and 2x
Ratio of expenses of A and B is 5 : 3 or expenses of A and B are 5y, and 3y
We know that, Savings = Income - Expenses
Savings of A = 3x - 5y = 200 ...(1)
Savings of B = 2x - 3y = 200 ...(2)
Solving these two equations, we get x = 400.
Therefore, Income of A = 3x = Rs.1200
Ratio of expenses of A and B is 5 : 3 or expenses of A and B are 5y, and 3y
We know that, Savings = Income - Expenses
Savings of A = 3x - 5y = 200 ...(1)
Savings of B = 2x - 3y = 200 ...(2)
Solving these two equations, we get x = 400.
Therefore, Income of A = 3x = Rs.1200
