      B Rs.5,950 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C Rs.9,800 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D Rs.3,375 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      ATQ,

      Let Tarun’s income be Rs. 100n

      Arjun’s income = 1.7 × 100n = Rs. 170n

      Expenditure of Arjun = 0.5 × 170n = Rs. 85n

      Expenditure of Tarun = 0.7 × 100n = Rs. 70n

      So, 85n - 70n = 1050

      Or, 15n = 1050

      Or, n = 70

      Savings of Arjun = 170n - 85n = 85n = 85 × 70 = Rs. 5,950
