Answer» Correct Answer - B Let the incomes of P and Q be Rs 5x and Rs 4x respectively . Let the expenditure of P and Q be Rs 4y and Rs 3y respectively Saving of P =Rs(5x-4y) Savings of Q =Rs(4x-3y) `therefore 5x-4y=(4x-3y)(1+(16(2)/(3))/(100))` `implies 5x-4y =(4x-3y)((7)/(6))` `implies 30x-24y=28x-21y` `implies 2x=3y` Required percentage `=(4y)/(5x)(100)` `=(4)/(3)((2)/(3))(100)=53(1)/(3)%` |
