Question

the ratio of income to saving of a family is 11:2 find the expenditure if the savings if the savings is 1520​

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Ratio of income:saving = 11:2

Total income = expenditure + saving

So let the income be 11x, then the saving will be 2x

And the saving is given as Rs 1520

So 2x = Rs1520

or x = Rs 760

So the income will be 11x =11⨯760 = Rs 8360

As Rs 8360 = expenditure + Rs1520

So expenditure = Rs 8360 - Rs1520 = Rs 6840

Hence the expenditure of the family is Rs 6840
