Question : Incomes of x and y are in the ratio 4 : 3. Their expenditures are in the ratio 12 : 7. Both save Rs. 3200 at the end of the month, then the income of x is:
Option 1: Rs. 8,000
Option 2: Rs. 6,000
Option 3: Rs. 2,000
Option 4: Rs. 4,000
Correct Answer: Rs. 8,000
Solution : Let the incomes of x and y be $4x$ and $3y$, respectively. According to the question, $\frac{(4x – 3200)}{(3x – 3200)} = \frac{12}{7}$ ⇒ $28x-22400=36x-38400$ ⇒ $8x=16000$ $\therefore x=2000$ So, income of x $= 4x = 4 ×2000 = 8000$ Hence, the correct answer is Rs. 8,000.
