    Solution

    Let her income be 100%. Remaining income = (100 - 40)% = 60%  Let the money spent on travel and food be Rs. 7x and Rs. 5x respectively.  Now, according to question, => 7x – 5x = 612 => x = 306 Total money spent on travel and food together = 12x = 3672 => 60% --- 3672 => 100% ----- 6120 Therefore her income is Rs. 6120.
