    Solution

    ATQ,

    Let the income of Riya, Meena, and Priya be Rs. x, Rs. x, and Rs. y respectively.

    ATQ,

    x ├Ч 30% тИТ x ├Ч 24% = 480

    x ├Ч 6% = 480

    x = 8000

    So, income of Riya and Meena is Rs. 8000 each.

    Amount spent by Riya on hobbies = 30% of 8000 = Rs. 2400

    Amount spent by Meena on hobbies = 24% of 8000 = Rs. 1920

    Amount spent by Priya on hobbies = (2400 + 1920) тИТ 1240 = Rs. 3080

    So, income of Priya = (3080 ├╖ 32) ├Ч 100 = Rs. 9625
