The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step by step, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the given information We know that: - The average expenditure of 4 boys and 3 girls is Rs. 120. - The average expenditure of the boys is Rs. 150. ### Step 2: Calculate the total expenditure of 4 boys and 3 girls The average expenditure of 4 boys and 3 girls is given as Rs. 120. Since there are a total of 7 individuals (4 boys + 3 girls), we can calculate the total expenditure (TE) using the formula for average: \[ \text{Average} = \frac{\text{Total Expenditure}}{\text{Number of Individuals}} \] Thus, we can rearrange this to find the total expenditure: \[ \text{Total Expenditure} = \text{Average} \times \text{Number of Individuals} \] Substituting the values: \[ \text{Total Expenditure} = 120 \times 7 = 840 \] ### Step 3: Calculate the total expenditure of the boys We know the average expenditure of the boys is Rs. 150. Therefore, we can calculate the total expenditure of the boys (TE_boys) using the same formula: \[ \text{Total Expenditure of Boys} = \text{Average Expenditure of Boys} \times \text{Number of Boys} \] Substituting the values: \[ \text{Total Expenditure of Boys} = 150 \times 4 = 600 \] ### Step 4: Calculate the total expenditure of the girls Now, we can find the total expenditure of the girls (TE_girls) by subtracting the total expenditure of the boys from the total expenditure of all individuals: \[ \text{Total Expenditure of Girls} = \text{Total Expenditure} - \text{Total Expenditure of Boys} \] Substituting the values: \[ \text{Total Expenditure of Girls} = 840 - 600 = 240 \] ### Step 5: Calculate the average expenditure of the girls Finally, we can find the average expenditure of the girls (AE_girls) using the formula: \[ \text{Average Expenditure of Girls} = \frac{\text{Total Expenditure of Girls}}{\text{Number of Girls}} \] Substituting the values: \[ \text{Average Expenditure of Girls} = \frac{240}{3} = 80 \] ### Conclusion The average expenditure of the girls is Rs. 80. ---
