    Solution

    ATQ, Let the monthly income of Neha be Rs. '100u' Her monthly expenditure = 100u × 0.60 = Rs. '60u' Her monthly savings = 100u - 60u = Rs. '40u' New income of Neha = 100u × 1.35 = Rs. '135u' New savings of Neha = 135u - 60u = Rs. '75u' ATQ; 75u = 10000 So, u = 133.33 So, Neha's monthly expenditure = 60u = 133.33 × 60 = Rs. 8,000
