The ratio of Income in two consecutive years is 2 : 3 respectively. The ratio of their expenditure is 5 : 9. Income of second year is ₹ 45,000 and Expenditure of 1st year is ₹ 25,000. Savings in both years together is?
Answer: B
The savings in both years together are ₹ 5,000.
Income is in the ratio 2 : 3, with the second year 45,000, so the first year's income is 30,000. Expenditure is in the ratio 5 : 9, with the first year 25,000, so the second year's is 45,000:
\[ \begin{aligned} \text{Year 1} &: 30000 - 25000 = 5000 \\ \text{Year 2} &: 45000 - 45000 = 0 \end{aligned} \]
Total savings are 5,000. The other options come from misreading which ratio applies to which year.
