Question

The monthly salary of a person is Rs 30,000 and his monthly expenditure is Rs 12,000. Find the ratio of savings to expenditure.​

Answer 1

We have the given data as per question,

Monthly salary=30000

Expenditure=12000

so from this we can easily find out the saving of person

saving=monthly (salary) - (Expenditure)

 saving=$30000-12000\\=18000$

we need to find the ratio of saving to expenditure

=$18000:12000$

$=\frac{18000}{12000\\}$

by simplifying in lowest term we get

$\frac{6}{4}$

because both are  divisible by 3

hence the ratio is 6:4

so we concluded that the ratio of saving to expenditure is 6:4
