    ATQ, For I: Saving of Priya = 0.15 × 32000 = Rs. 4800 Saving of Siya = 0.25 × 30000 = Rs. 7500 Required difference = 7500 – 4800 = Rs. 2700 (Not true) For II: Saving of Priya = 0.15 × 32000 = Rs. 4800 Saving of Siya = 0.25 × 28000 = Rs. 7000 Required difference = 7000 – 4800 = Rs. 2200 (Not true) For III: Saving of Priya = 0.15 × 32000 = Rs. 4800 Saving of Siya = 0.25 × 36000 = Rs. 9000 Required difference = 9000 – 4800 = Rs. 4200 (True) For IV: Saving of Priya = 0.15 × 32000 = Rs. 4800 Saving of Siya = 0.25 × 34000 = Rs. 8500 Required difference = 8500 – 4800 = Rs. 3700 (Not true) So, III is true.
