Question

    The earnings of Nikhil, Rohan, and Sumit are in the ratio

    14:12:9. Their savings maintain the ratio 7:6:4. If Rohan puts aside Rs. 18,000, which is 30% of his total income, then what is Sumit's expenditure?
    A 25,500 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 33,000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 32,450 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 24,000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    ATQ,

    Income of Rohan = 18000 ÷ 0.3 = Rs. 60,000

    Income of Sumit = 60000 × (9/12) = Rs. 45,000

    Saving of Sumit = 18000 × (4/6) = Rs. 12,000

    Expenditure of Sumit = 45000 - 12000 = Rs. 33,000
