Question

the monthly income of x and y are in the ratio of 4:3 and their monthly expenses are in the ratio of 3:2. however, each saves 6000 per month. what is their total monthly income
​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

4x-6000/3x-6000=3/2

2(4x-6000)=3(3x-6000)

8x-12000=9x-18000

9x-8x=18000-12000

x=6000

income of x is 4x=4×6000=24000

Income of y is 3x=3×6000=18000

total income = 24000+18000

---42000

(or)

total income=4x+3x=7x

7×6000=42000
