Question

The income of P, Q and R are in the ratio of 5 : 4 : 3 respectively and their
expenses are in the ratio of 6 : 5 : 4 respectively. If P saves Rs 4000 out of an income of
Rs 10000, then what will be the saving (in Rs) of Q?

Answer 1

Answer:

saving = income - expenses

8000 - 3000 = 5000

Answer 2

Answer:3000

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the incomes be-

P= 5x Q=4x and R=3x

Given 5x=10, 000

X=2000

So, incomes are P=10,000; Q= 8000; R=6000

P saves 4000 means expense is 6000

Let the expenses be

P=6y; Q= 5y; R=4y

Since, 6y=6000

So, y=1000

So, Q expenses= 5000

Qsaving= earning - expenses

= 8000-5000

=3000
