    A Rs. 5800 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Rs. 6000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Rs. 5500 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Rs. 6200 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    A + B = 6050 × 2 = 12100
    B + C = 6500 × 2 = 13000
    A + C = 6250 × 2 = 12500

    Now, (A + B) + (B + C) + (A + C) = 12100 + 13000 + 12500 = 37600

    This equals 2(A + B + C).
    So, A + B + C = 37600 ÷ 2 = 18800

    A = (A + B + C) – (B + C) = 18800 – 13000 = 5800

    Henec, monthly income of A is Rs. 5800
