Question

The following double line graph shows the income and expenditure of Mr. Henry over three months.

During which month was the savings of Mr. Henry the highest?

• A. January
• B. February
• C. March
• D. None of the above

Answer 1

The correct option is B February

$\text{Formula :}\text{Savings}=\text{Income}-\text{Expenditure}$

In January:
Income $=5000,$ Expenditure $=2000$
Savings $=$ Income $-$ Expenditure $=5000-2000=3000$

In February:
Income $=6000,$ Expenditure $=2000$
Savings $=$ Income $-$ Expenditure $=6000-2000=4000$

In March:
Income $=4000,$ Expenditure $=3000$
Savings $=$ Income $-$ Expenditure $=4000-3000=1000$

Hence, the savings of Mr. Henry is highest in the February month.
