    Solution

    Let her income be 100%. Remaining income = (100 - 16)% = 84%  Let the money spent on travel and food be Rs. 5x and Rs. 2x respectively.  Now, according to question, => 5x – 2x = 1836 => x = 612 Total money spent on travel and food together = 7x = 4284 => 84% --- 4284 => 100% ----- 5100 Therefore her income is Rs. 5100.
