      A Rs. 50,000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B Rs. 48,000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C Rs. 54,000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D Rs. 60,000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E Rs. 52,000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Let the income of Ramesh = Rs. '100x' Amount left after spending on food = 100x - 100x X 0.25 = Rs. '75x' Amount left after spending on rent = 75x - 75x X 0.40 = Rs. '45x' So, 45x = 18000 Or, x = 18000 Γ· 45 = 400 So, income of Ramesh = 400 X 100 = Rs. 40,000 Income of Suresh = 40000 X 1.20 = Rs. 48,000
