Question

Rohit earns rupees 1500 and spends rupees 1250 per month. Find the ratio between his:

a) savings and expenditure b) expenditure and income c) income and savings

Answer 1

Explanation:

To find the ratio between Rohit's savings and expenditure, we need to divide his savings by his expenditure:

Savings / Expenditure = (1500 - 1250) / 1250 = 250 / 1250 = 1/5

The ratio between Rohit's savings and expenditure is 1/5.

To find the ratio between Rohit's expenditure and income, we need to divide his expenditure by his income:

Expenditure / Income = 1250 / 1500 = 5/6

The ratio between Rohit's expenditure and income is 5/6.

To find the ratio between Rohit's income and savings, we need to divide his income by his savings:

Income / Savings = 1500 / (1500 - 1250) = 1500 / 250 = 6/1

The ratio between Rohit's income and savings is 6/1.
