    Solution

    ATQ, Let, the monthly Income of 'Anil' and 'Jaggu' be Rs.'5a' and Rs. '6a'. So, monthly savings of 'Anil' = 0.25 × 6a = Rs. '1.5a' So, monthly expenditure of 'Anil' = 5a - 1.5a = Rs.'3.5a' And, monthly expenditure of 'Jaggu' = (8/13) × 3.5a = Rs. (28a/13) And, monthly savings of 'B' = 6a - (28a/13) = Rs.(50a/13) Required ratio = 1.5a:(50a/13) = 39:100
