Question
Two individuals, 'Arjun' and 'Bheem', are partners. The
proportion of 'Arjun's spending compared to 'Bheem's is 4:5. Meanwhile, the savings ratio of 'Arjun' to 'Bheem' is 2:3. Additionally, the ratio of 'Arjun's expenditure to 'Bheem's savings is 2:1. If 'Bheem' manages to save Rs. 4,000 more than 'Arjun', determine 'Bheem's total earnings.Solution
ATQ, Let the expenditure of 'Arjun' be Rs.'12p'. Expenditure of 'Bheem' = (5/4) × 12p = Rs. '15p' Savings of 'Bheem' = (1/2) × 12p = Rs. '6p' So, savings of 'Arjun' = (2/3) × 6p = Rs. '4p' ATQ, 6p - 4p = 4000 So, p = (4000/2) = 2000 Income of 'Bheem' = Expenditure of 'Bheem' + Savings of 'Bheem' = 15p + 6p = 21p = 21 × 2000 = Rs.42,000
