Question:

Madhuri spends 80% of her salary and Sushma spends 95% of her salary. But the savings of both are equal. Find the income of Sushma, if the sum of their incomes is ₹10,000.

Options:

₹9,000

₹8,000

₹4,000

₹5,000

Correct Answer:

₹8,000

Explanation:

According to question ,

20% of Madhuri = 5% of Sushma

4 × Madhuri = 1 × Sushma

Ratio ,

Madhuri  :   Sushma  =  1  :   4

5R = 10000  (given)

1R = 2000

Income = 4R = 4 × 2000

= 8000
