The average monthly income of A and B is Rs. 5050. The average monthly income of B and C is Rs. 6250 and the average monthly income of A and C is Rs. 5200. What is the monthly income of A?
Answer: C
Let monthly income of A = a
monthly income of B = b
monthly income of C = c
\(a + b = 2 \times 5050~\cdots(Equation 1)\\ b + c = 2 \times 6250 ~\cdots(Equation 2)\\ a + c = 2 \times 5200 ~\cdots (Equation 3)\\ (Equation 1) + (Equation 3) - (Equation 2)\\ \Rightarrow a + b + a + c - (b + c) = (2 \times 5050) + (2 \times 5200) - (2 \times 6250)\\ \Rightarrow 2a = 2(5050 + 5200 - 6250)\\ \Rightarrow a = 4000\)
i.e., Monthly income of A = 4000
