Answer 2

☆ Solution ☆

Given :-

• The ratio of income to the expenditure of a family is 7:6.

To Find :-

• The savings if the income is Rs. 14000

Step-by-Step-Explaination :-

Let the ratio be 7x and 6x

Income = Rs. 14000

Therefore,

7x = 14000

=> x = $\frac{14000}{7}$

=> 2000

Expenditure = 6x

=> 6 ( 2000 )

=> 12000

As we know that :-

Saving = Income - expenditure

Putting the respective value

Saving = 14000 - 12000

Saving = Rs. 2000

Hence Solved !
