Correct Answer: Rs. 3,185


Solution : Sum of expenditure of first 4 months = 4 × 2570 = 10,280
Sum of expenditure of next 3 months = 3 × 2490 = 7,470
Sum of expenditure of last 5 months = 5 × 3030 = 15,150
Savings = 5,320
We know that,
Total income = expenditure + savings = 10,280 + 7,470 + 15,150 + 5,320 = 38,220
So, monthly income $=\frac{\text{Total income}}{12}=\frac{38220}{12}=$ 3,185
Hence, the correct answer is Rs. 3,185.
