Correct Answer: Rs. 2,400
Solution :
Sum of expenditure of first 4 months = 4 × 1,800 = 7,200
Sum of expenditure of last 8 months = 8 × 2,000 = 1,6000
Savings = 5,600
We know that,
Total income = expenditure + savings = 7,200 + 16,000 + 5,600 = 28,800
$\therefore$ Monthly income = $\frac{\text{Total income}}{12}=\frac{28800}{12}$ = 2,400
Hence, the correct answer is Rs. 2,400.
