4.5, their expenses are in the ratio 5:6 If
A saves Rs 25 per month and B saves Rs. 50 pes
month what are their respective incomes ?
​

Answer 1

Answer:

Rs.400 and Rs.500

Explanation:

Let A's income be = 4x

A's expenses, therefore=4x–25

Let B's income be =5x

B's expenses, therefore =5x–50

We know that the ratio of their expenses =5:6

⇒ 24x−150=25x−250

⇒ Therefore, x=100.

⇒ A's income =4x= 400 and B's income =5x= 500.
