      3:2:4, while their savings follow a ratio of 3:1:2. The combined expenditure of all three individuals amounts to Rs. 45,000, and A's total income is Rs. 24,000. Calculate the total income of C.
      A Rs.22000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B Rs.24000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C Rs.26000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D Rs.28000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Let the expenditure of A, B and C be Rs. β€˜3x’, Rs. β€˜2x’ and Rs. β€˜4x’ respectively.
      And, the savings of A, B and C be Rs. β€˜3y’, Rs. β€˜y’ and Rs. β€˜2y’ respectively.
      According to question,
      3x + 2x + 4x = 45000
      x = Rs. 5000
      And, 3x + 3y = 24000
      3y = 24000 – 15000
      3y = 9000,
      y = Rs. 3000
      So, income of C = 4x + 2y = 20000 + 6000 = Rs. 26000
