The incomes of two persons A and B are in the ratio 3:4. If each saves Rs.100 per month, the ratio of their expenditures is 1:2. Find their incomes ?

Correct Answer: 150, 200

The incomes of A and B be 3P and 4P.

Expenditures = Income - Savings

(3P - 100) and (4P - 100)

The ratio of their expenditure = 1:2

(3P - 100):(4P - 100) = 1:2

2P = 100 => P = 50

Their incomes = 150, 200
