Question

The ratio of income of 2 persons is 9:7 and the ratio of their expenses is 4:3 . If each of them saves Rs.2000 per month. Find their monthly income

Answer 1

the monthly income is 4500 and 3500 respectively

Answer 2

Answer:

Income of person 1=rs.3600,income of person 2=rs.3500

Step-by-step explanation:

ratio of icome=9:7

let incomes be 9x,7x

ratio of expenditure=4:3

let expenditures be 4x,3x

so saving of person 1 = 9x-4x=5x = rs 2000

so x=2000/5=400

so income of person 1=9x=9 x 400=rs.3600

so income of person 2=7x=7 x 400=rs.2800
