      Solution

      ATQ,

      Let monthly income of Pawan be Rs. ‘100x’.

      Amount received by ‘Aman’ = 0.29 × 100x = Rs. ‘29x’

      Amount received by ‘Bhanu’ and ‘Charu’ together = 0.16 × 100x = Rs. ‘16x’

      Amount received by ‘Bhanu’ = (16x × 0.435) = Rs. ‘6.96x’

      Amount received by ‘Charu’ = (16x – 6.96x) = Rs. ‘9.04x’

      ATQ,

      9.04x + 1101 = 0.375 × 29x

      Or, 9.04x + 1101 = 10.875x

      Or, 1101 = 1.835x

      So, x = 600

      So, monthly income of Piyush = 100x = 100 × 600 = Rs. 60,000
