The monthly incomes of A, B and C are in the ratio 3 : 4 : 5 while their savings are in the ratio 1 : 2 : 3. If the savings of A is Rs. 600 per month equivalent to 10% of his income, how much does C spend per month?
so a income=6000 10/100x=600
or else 90x/100=600
so x=2000 then c should be 10000
a spends 10% of saving which has ratio 1 so for 30 % saving
so spending of c is 7000?
lets work A first : savings = 600 = 10% of his income so, income = 6000, right ?
yes
next, their savings are in the ratio 1 : 2 : 3 since A has a saving of 600, that means C must have a saving of 3*600 = 1800, right ?
yes i have that problem
next, whats the income of C ?
so 8200
8200 he spends,10000 income
incomes of A, B and C are in the ratio 3 : 4 : 5 since A has an income of 6000, that means C must have an income of 6000*5/3 = 10.000
so his spendings = 10,000 - 1800 = 8200 you're right :)
