Three friends Seeta, Reeta and Geeta spends 12%, 14% and 16% of their monthly salary on travelling in the given order and each of them save half of the remaining amount. The monthly salary of Seeta and Geeta is same and the monthly saving of Seeta is Rs. 360 more than that of Geeta. The total expenditures of Seeta and Reeta together on travelling is Rs. 1240 more than that of Geeta.
Q1. What is the monthly expenditure of Seeta and Reeta together on travelling?
Then, Monthly expenditures on travelling = 12% of 100x = Rs. 12x
Remaining = Rs. (100x – 12x) = Rs. 88x
Saving = 88x/2 = Rs. 44x
Reeta’s month salary = Rs. 100y
Then, Monthly expenditures on travelling = 14% of 100x = Rs. 14y
Remaining = Rs. (100y – 14y) = Rs. 86y
Saving = 86y/2 = Rs. 43y
The monthly salary of Geeta = The monthly salary of Seeta = Rs. 100x
The monthly expenditures of Geeta on travelling = 16% of 100x = Rs. 16x
Remaining = Rs. (100x – 16x) = Rs. 84x
Saving = 84x/2 = Rs. 42x
The monthly salary of Seeta and Geeta are same and the monthly saving of Seeta is Rs. 360 more than that of Geeta
44x – 42x = 2x = 360
x = 180
The total expenditures of Seeta and Reeta together on travelling is Rs. 1240 more than that of Geeta.
12x + 14y = 16x + 1240
14y = 4x + 1240 = 720 + 1240 = 1960
y = 140
The monthly expenditure of Seeta and Reeta together on travelling = Rs. (12x + 14y) = Rs. (12 × 180 + 14 × 140)
= Rs. (2160 + 1960) = Rs. 4120
Q2. The monthly salary of Reeta is how much more than/less than that of Seeta?
Then, Monthly expenditures on travelling = 12% of 100x = Rs. 12x

The monthly salary of Seeta and Geeta are same and the monthly saving of Seeta is Rs. 360 more than that of Geeta
44x – 42x = 2x = 360
x = 180
The total expenditures of Seeta and Reeta together on travelling is Rs. 1240 more than that of Geeta.
12x + 14y = 16x + 1240
14y = 4x + 1240 = 720 + 1240 = 1960
y = 140
The monthly salary of Reeta = Rs. 100y = Rs. 14000
The monthly salary of Seeta = Rs. 100x = Rs. 18000
The required answer = Rs. (14000 – 18000) = 4000 less than that of Seeta
Q3. What is the sum of the saving of all the three friends together?
Then, Monthly expenditures on travelling = 12% of 100x = Rs. 12x

Saving = 84x/2 = Rs. 42x
The monthly salary of Seeta and Geeta are same and the monthly saving of Seeta is Rs. 360 more than that of Geeta
44x – 42x = 2x = 360
x = 180
The total expenditures of Seeta and Reeta together on travelling is Rs. 1240 more than that of Geeta.
12x + 14y = 16x + 1240
14y = 4x + 1240 = 720 + 1240 = 1960
y = 140
The required sum = Rs. (44x + 43y + 42x) = Rs. (86x + 43y) = Rs. (86 × 180 + 43 × 140) = Rs. (15480 + 6020) = Rs. 21500
Q4. The total monthly saving of three friends together is what percentage of their total monthly salary?
Then, Monthly expenditures on travelling = 12% of 100x = Rs. 12x

Reeta’s month salary = Rs. 100y
Then, Monthly expenditures on travelling = 14% of 100x = Rs. 14y
Remaining = Rs. (100y – 14y) = Rs. 86y
Saving = 86y/2 = Rs. 43y
The monthly salary of Geeta = The monthly salary of Seeta = Rs. 100x
The monthly expenditures of Geeta on travelling = 16% of 100x = Rs. 16x

Saving = 84x/2 = Rs. 42x
The monthly salary of Seeta and Geeta are same and the monthly saving of Seeta is Rs. 360 more than that of Geeta
44x – 42x = 2x = 360
x = 180
The total expenditures of Seeta and Reeta together on travelling is Rs. 1240 more than that of Geeta.
12x + 14y = 16x + 1240
14y = 4x + 1240 = 720 + 1240 = 1960
y = 140
Their total monthly salary = Rs. (100x + 100y + 100x) = Rs. (200x + 100y) = Rs. (36000 + 14000) = Rs. 50000
Total monthly saving = Rs. (44x + 43y + 42x) = Rs. (86x + 43y) = Rs. (86 × 180 + 43 × 140) = Rs. (15480 + 6020) = Rs. 21500
The reqd. answer =
= 43%
Q5. By how much should Seeta's monthly salary be increased so the monthly expenditures of Seeta on travelling will become equal to that of Geeta?

Remaining = Rs. (100x – 12x) = Rs. 88x
Saving = 88x/2 = Rs. 44x
Reeta’s month salary = Rs. 100y
Then, Monthly expenditures on travelling = 14% of 100x = Rs. 14y
Remaining = Rs. (100y – 14y) = Rs. 86y
Saving = 86y/2 = Rs. 43y
The monthly salary of Geeta = The monthly salary of Seeta = Rs. 100x
The monthly expenditures of Geeta on travelling = 16% of 100x = Rs. 16x
Remaining = Rs. (100x – 16x) = Rs. 84x
Saving = 84x/2 = Rs. 42x
The monthly salary of Seeta and Geeta are same and the monthly saving of Seeta is Rs. 360 more than that of Geeta
44x – 42x = 2x = 360
x = 180
The total expenditures of Seeta and Reeta together on travelling is Rs. 1240 more than that of Geeta.
12x + 14y = 16x + 1240
14y = 4x + 1240 = 720 + 1240 = 1960
y = 140
Let the monthly salary of Seeta was increased by Rs a then,
12% × (18000 + a) = 16% × 18000
3 × (18000 + a) = 4 × 18000
a = Rs 6000
