Question

The income and savings of an employee are in the ratio 11 : 2. If his expenditure is Rs 5346, then find his income and savings.

Answer 1

According to question,

Income = 11 part

Savings = 2 part

Thus, expenditure = 11 – 2 = 9 part

Now, 9 part = Rs 5346

1 part = Rs 5346 $÷$ 9 = Rs 594

Thus, income = 11 part = 11 $\times$ 594 = Rs 6534

And saving = 2 part = 2 $\times$ 594 = Rs 1188
