    Solution

    ATQ, Let the monthly savings of Vimla = Rs. 'v' So the monthly savings of Anamika = Rs. 1.25v Monthly expenditure of Vimla  = 1.25v + 6,000 According to question:  (1.25x + 22000)/(v + 1.25v + 6000) = 4/3 3.75v + 66000 = 9v + 24000 5.25v = 42000 v = 8000 So the monthly income of Anamika  = 1.25 × 8000 + 22000  = Rs.32,000
