‘Two brothers have their annual incomes in the ratio
in the ratio 5: 3. If they save & 2,400 and @ 2,000 p.a., find their incomes. ~
Solution
Since the ratio of incomes of two brothers is 8 : 5, so we can assume tht
incomes are 8x and 5x respectively.
Expenditure of one brother = 8 - 2,400
Expenditure of second brother = 5x - 2,000
Ratio of their expenditures
Bx 2,400 _ 5
6x 2,000 3
= 8(8x - 2,400) = 5(6x ~ 2,000)
= Ax ~ 7,200 = 25x = 10,000
= ‘24x — 26x = - 10,000 + 7,200
=x=-2,800
ie, x= 2,800 .
Hence, the income of one brother= 8 x 2,800 =< 22,400
and’ the income of other brother= 5 x 2,800 = 14,000
