      B Rs. 3,000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C Rs. 4,000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D Rs. 7,500 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Let the income of 'A' be Rs. 'x' Therefore, income of 'B' = Rs. (x βˆ’ 1000) Difference between their savings
      = 0.80x βˆ’ 0.80(x βˆ’ 1000)
      = 0.80x βˆ’ 0.80x + 0.80 Γ— 1000
      = Rs. 800 Therefore, income of 'C' = (800 / 0.16) = Rs. 5,000
