Question
The savings of Arun and Bhaskar are same. The difference
between the expenditure of Bhaskar and the savings of both Arun and Bhaskar together is 0. The income of Bhaskar is Rs. 12,000 and the expenditure of Arun is Rs. 2000 less than that of Bhaskar. Find the income of Arun.Solution
Let the savings of Arun and Bhaskar be Rs. x each Therefore, expenditure of Bhaskar = Rs. 2x Or, 2x + x = 12000 Or, x = Rs. 4000 Therefore, expenditure of Arun = 2x – 2000 = Rs. 6000 Income of Arun = 6000 + 4000 = Rs. 10000
