Correct Answer: Rs. 2,900
Solution : The ratio of income of Jitendra to Narendra = $4: 7$ The ratio of expenditure of Jitendra to Narendra = $6: 5$ Jitendra's savings = Rs. 400 Jitendra's income = Rs. 2,800 Let the ratio of income of Jitendra to Narendra be 4x and 7x. So 4x = 2800 ⇒ x = 700 So, the income of Narendra = 7x = 7 × 700 = 4900 The saving of Jitendra = 400 So, expenditure of Jitendra = 2800 – 400 = 2400 The ratio of expenditure of Jitendra to Narendra = 6 : 5 Let the ratio of expenditure be 6y and 5y. So, 6y = 2400 ⇒ y = 400 So, expenditure of Narendra = 5y = 5 × 400 = 2,000 $\therefore$ Savings of Narendra = 4,900 – 2,000 = 2,900 Hence, the correct answer is Rs. 2,900.
