      Question

      In 2020 when his income was Rs. 25,000, Arjun spent 30% of

      his income and saved the rest. In 2021, if his income increased by 15% and his expenditure increased by Rs. 500, then by how much did his savings increase as compared to that in 2020?
      A Rs.3250 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B Rs.3200 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C Rs.4580 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D Rs.5100 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      ATQ,

      Amount spent by Arjun in 2020 = 25000 Ă— 0.3 = Rs. 7,500

      Amount saved by Arjun in 2020 = 25000 - 7500 = Rs. 17,500

      Income of Arjun in 2021 = 25000 Ă— 1.15 = Rs. 28,750

      Amount spent by Arjun in 2021 = 7500 + 500 = Rs. 8,000

      So, amount saved by Arjun in 2021 = 28750 - 8000 = Rs. 20,750

      Increase in savings as compared to 2020 = 20750 - 17500 = Rs. 3,250
