    1. ₹ 1500
    2. ₹ 1600
    3. ₹ 1700
    4. ₹ 1400
Correct Option: A

Given that ,The average expenditure of a man for the first five months = ₹ 1200
The average expenditure for the next seven months = ₹ 1300.
His savings = ₹ 2900
Total annual expenditure of man = Rs.(5 × 1200 + 7 × 1300)
Total annual expenditure of man = Rs. (6000 + 9100) = Rs. 15100
His total annual income = Rs. (15100 + 2900) = Rs. 18000

∴ Average monthly income =
