  • C. A=3000, B=2000, C=1500

  • Correct Answer
  • A=3000, B=2000, C=1500 

    Explanation
    A's spending 90% therefore saving = 10% B's spending 75% therefore saving = 25% C's spending 60% therefore saving = 40% Let us suppose A, B and C saves Rs. 3, 5 and 6 respectively. 10% of A's saving = Rs. 3 100% of A's saving = (3/10)*100 = Rs. 30 25% of B's saving = Rs. 5 100% of B's saving = (5/25)*100 = Rs. 20 40% of C's saving = Rs.6 100% of C's saving = (6/40)*100 = Rs. 15 Divide Rs. 6500 in the ratio of 30 : 20 : 15 A's Share = (30/65)*6500 = Rs. 3000 B's Share = (20/65)*6500 = Rs. 2000 C's Share = (15/65)*6500 = Rs. 1500
