Correct Answer: INR 6,000
Solution : Given: The annual incomes of Amit and Veer = 3 : 2 Expenditures = 5 : 3 Savings = INR 1,000 Let the annual income of Amit and Veer be $3x$ and $2x$. We know that, Income – Saving = Expenditure According to question: $\frac{3x – 1000}{2x-1000} = \frac{5}{3} $ ⇒ $9x - 3000 = 10x - 5000$ ⇒ $x=2000$ The annual income of Amit = 3 × 2000 = INR 6,000 Hence, the correct answer is INR 6,000.
