    A Rs. 24,000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Rs. 26,000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Rs. 37,000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Rs. 44,000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E Rs. 48,000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

     Let the savings of G and H be Rs. w each.  Therefore, expenditure of H = Rs. 2w.  Or, 2w + w = 45,000.  Or, w = Rs. 15,000.  Therefore, expenditure of G = 2w – 8,000 = Rs. 22,000.  Income of G = 22,000 + 15,000 = Rs. 37,000.
