      Solution

      ATQ;
      Let the incomes of Pooja and Meena be Rs. 5x and Rs. 3x, respectively.
      According to the given information,
      5x - 7500 + 3x - 4500 = 6000
      Or, 8x = 18000
      Or, x = 2250
      Thus, their savings ratio is:
      (5x - 7500):(3x - 4500) = 3750:2250 = 5:3
