• A. Rs. $1,500$
• B. Rs. $2,000$
• C. Rs. $1,200$
• D. Rs. $3,000$

Answer 1

Answer: (B)

Rs. $2,000$

Angle made by rent expenditure $=$ angle made by education expenditure $={60}^0$ ...(vertically opposite angles)
Angle made by miscellaneous expenditure $=360-90-30-60-60=120{}^{\circ }$
Miscellaneous expenditure $=\frac{120\times 6000}{360}=$ Rs. $2000$
