The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step by step, we will break down the information given and calculate the required values. ### Step 1: Understand the Income Relationship Let Anurag's income be \( A \). According to the problem, Veer's income \( V \) is \( 11 \frac{1}{9}\% \) more than Anurag's income. First, convert \( 11 \frac{1}{9}\% \) into a fraction: \[ 11 \frac{1}{9}\% = \frac{100}{9}\% = \frac{100}{900} = \frac{1}{9} \] Thus, Veer's income can be expressed as: \[ V = A + \frac{1}{9}A = \frac{10}{9}A \] ### Step 2: Calculate Anurag's Savings and Expenditure Anurag saves \( 40\% \) of his income: \[ \text{Savings of Anurag} = 0.4A \] This means Anurag spends \( 60\% \) of his income: \[ \text{Expenditure of Anurag} = 0.6A \] ### Step 3: Calculate Veer's Expenditure Veer spends \( 3 \frac{19}{27}\% \) less than Anurag. First, convert \( 3 \frac{19}{27}\% \) into a fraction: \[ 3 \frac{19}{27}\% = \frac{100}{27}\% = \frac{100}{2700} = \frac{1}{27} \] Thus, Veer's expenditure can be calculated as: \[ \text{Expenditure of Veer} = \text{Expenditure of Anurag} - \frac{1}{27} \times \text{Expenditure of Anurag \] \[ = 0.6A - \frac{1}{27}(0.6A) = 0.6A \left(1 - \frac{1}{27}\right) = 0.6A \left(\frac{26}{27}\right) = \frac{15.6}{27}A \] ### Step 4: Calculate the Difference in Savings The difference in their savings is given as Rs. 2400: \[ \text{Savings of Anurag} - \text{Savings of Veer} = 2400 \] Let Veer's savings be \( S_V \): \[ 0.4A - S_V = 2400 \] Now, since Veer's income is \( \frac{10}{9}A \), his savings can be calculated as: \[ S_V = \text{Income of Veer} - \text{Expenditure of Veer} = \frac{10}{9}A - \frac{15.6}{27}A \] ### Step 5: Calculate the Expenditures Now, we can find the difference in expenditures: \[ \text{Difference in Expenditure} = \text{Expenditure of Anurag} - \text{Expenditure of Veer} \] \[ = 0.6A - \frac{15.6}{27}A \] ### Step 6: Calculate the Final Difference Using the values calculated, we can find the numerical difference: \[ = 0.6A - \frac{15.6}{27}A \] To find the common denominator: \[ = \frac{16.2}{27}A - \frac{15.6}{27}A = \frac{0.6}{27}A \] Now, we know that the difference in savings is Rs. 2400, which corresponds to \( 1.2 \) units (as calculated earlier). Therefore, we can find the difference in expenditure: \[ \text{Difference in Expenditure} = \frac{0.2}{1.2} \times 2400 = 400 \] ### Final Answer The difference between the expenditure of Veer and Anurag is Rs. 400. ---
