      spend 70% of their incomes, then what percent is the expenditure of Riya compared to that of Neha?
      A 62.5% Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 45.5% Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 75.5% Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 82.5% Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      ATQ,

      Let the income of Riya be Rs. 100x.

      So, income of Neha = 1.6 × 100x = Rs. 160x

      Expenditure of Riya = 0.7 × 100x = Rs. 70x

      Expenditure of Neha = 0.7 × 160x = Rs. 112x

      Therefore, required percentage = (70x / 112x) × 100 = (625 / 10)% = 62.5%
