Answer» Correct Answer - Option 1 : 41 : 40

Given:

P increased his savings amount by 40 every month starting with Rs. 540 for the 1st month. Q increased his savings by 30 every month starting from Rs. 590 for the 1st month.

Formula:

Ratio of Profit = ratios of product of Amount invested and time

Calculation:

Given, P increased his savings amount by 40 every month starting with Rs. 540 for 1st month

P’s savings after 8 months = 540 + 7 × 40 = 540 + 280 = 820

Q’s savings after 8 months = 590 + 7 × 30 = 590 + 210 = 800

Required ratio = 820 : 800

⇒ 41 : 40

∴ The ratio of their savings after 8 months is 41 ∶ 40.
