    Solution

    Let monthly income of A and B be 9x and 10x, respectively. Then, 9x + 10x = 76000 19x = 76000, x = 4000 AтАЩs monthly income = 9x = Rs. 36000 BтАЩs monthly income = 10x = Rs. 40000 Given, expenditure of B = Rs. 18000 So, BтАЩs saving = 40000 тАУ 18000 = Rs. 22000 Then, AтАЩs saving = 22000 + (1/11) ├Ч 22000 = 22000 + 2000 = Rs. 24000 AтАЩs expenditure = 36000 тАУ 24000 = Rs. 12000
