145. A and B do a business together. Their incomes are in the ratio 3 : 2, and their expenses are in the ratio 5 : 3. If each saves Rs. 1000, what are their incomes?

Check answer and explanation

Answer: Rs. 6000 and Rs. 4000

Explanation Let A and B’s incomes be 3x and 2x, respectively. Let their expenses be 5y and 3y, respectively. Their savings = Income − Expense = Rs. 1000 for both. So: For A: 3x − 5y = 1000 → (1) For B: 2x − 3y = 1000 → (2) Multiply (1) by 2: 6x − 10y = 2000 Multiply (2) by 3: 6x − 9y = 3000 Now subtract: (6x − 10y) − (6x − 9y) = 2000 − 3000 ⇒ −y = −1000 ⇒ y = 1000 Now plug y = 1000 into equation (1): 3x − 5(1000) = 1000 ⇒ 3x = 6000 ⇒ x = 2000 Now find incomes: A's income = 3x = 6000 B's income = 2x = 4000
