Annual incomes of Amit and Veeri are in the ratio 3:2, while the ratio of their expenditure is 5 : 3. If at the end of the year each saves ₹ 1,000, the annual income of Amit is
-
- ₹ 9,000
- ₹ 8,000
- ₹ 7,000
- ₹ 6,000
Correct Option: D
Amit’s income = ₹ 3x and his expenditure = ₹ 5y
Veeri’s income = ₹ 2x and his expenditure = ₹ 3y
∴ 3x – 5y = 2x – 3y
⇒ x = 2y
∴ 3x – 5y = 1000
⇒ 6y – 5y = 1000 ⇒ y = 1000
∴ x = 2000
∴ Amit’s income
= 3x = 3 × 2000 = ₹ 6000
