Solution

We have,
Amount of money Seema earns $= ₹ 1, 50, 000$
Amount of money she saves $= ₹ 50, 000$
Amount of money she spends $= Money earned - Money saved = 1, 50, 000 - 50, 000 = ₹ 1, 00, 000$
$\begin{array}{rcl} Therefore, ratio of the money that Seema saves to the money she spends & = & \frac{Money saved}{Money spent} \\ = & \frac{50000}{100000} \\ Dividing numerator and denominator by their HCF i . e . 50000 \\ = & \frac{1}{2} \\ = & 1 : 2 \end{array}$
Hence, required ratio is $1 : 2$
