Question

A man earns $Rs15000$ in a month. If he spends $Rs9000$, then

Expenditure : saving $=$______

Answer 1

Given that,

Total income of a men in a month $=Rs15000$

Total spend of a men in same month $=Rs9000$

Total savings $=$Total earning of a men in a month $-$ Total spend of a men in same month

$=$$Rs15000-Rs9000$

$=Rs6000$

Ratio of Expenditure : Saving $=9000:6000$

Lowest form of $=9000:6000=\frac{9000}{6000}=\frac{3}{2}=3:2$ ( Divide both $9000$and $6000$ by their HCF $300$)

Hence, Expenditure : Saving $=$$3:2$.
