The incomes of two persons P and Q are in the ratio 5 : 6. If each of them saves ₹ 200 per month, the ratio of their expenditures is 3 : 4. Find the income of Q.
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 3
P : Q
Income 5 : 6
Expenditure 3 : 4
⇒ Savings = (6 - 4)units or (5 - 3)units = Rs. 200

⇒ 1 unit = Rs. 100
⇒ Income of Q = 6 x 100 = Rs. 600.
