    C Rs.14,400 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Rs.16,000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Let the savings of Pokemon be Rs. 'x' So, expenditure of Pokemon = x X 1.4 = Rs. '1.4x' Income of Pokemon = x + 1.4x = Rs. '2.4x' Amount spent on rent = 2100 ATQ; 1.4x X 0.3 = 2100 Or, 0.42x = 2100 So, x = 5000 So, income of Pokemon = 5000 X 2.4 = Rs.12,000
