Question

The ratio of the income to the expenditure of a family is 9 : 8. Find the savings if the income is ₹ 9000
​

Answer 1

Answer:1000

Step-by-step explanation:

9000(income) - 8000(expenditure) = 1000 (savings)

Answer 2

Answer:

Let income be 9x and Expenditure be 8x.

Income = Expenditure + Savings

So, Savings = Income - Expenditure = 9x-8x = x

Now, Income = Rs 9000 = 9x

So, x = Rs 1000

Therefore, Savings is Rs. 1000
