    C Rs. 4,500 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Rs. 5,000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E Rs. 5,400 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Let the income of B be Rs. тАШxтАЩ Therefore, income of A = Rs. (100000 тАУ x) Savings of A = 0.4 ├Ч (100000 тАУ x) = Rs. (40000 тАУ 0.4x) Savings of B = Rs. 0.2x According to the question, 40000 тАУ 0.4x = 0.2x + 4000 Or, 0.6x = 36000 Or, x = 60000 Savings of A = 40000 тАУ 24000 = Rs. 16000 Savings of B = 12000 Income of C = 1.2 ├Ч {(16000 + 12000)/2}
    = Rs. 16800 Savings of C = 0.25 ├Ч 16800 = Rs. 4200
