Answer: Option D
Solution
Answer: Option D
Solution:
Let Raman's expense be Rs. Then, Vimal's expenses :
= 90% of
Aman's expense :
\begin{aligned} & = {\text{130% of Rs}}{\text{. }}\left( {\frac{{9x}}{{10}}} \right) \\ & = {\text{ Rs}}{\text{. }}\left( {\frac{{130}}{{100}} \times \frac{{9x}}{{10}}} \right) \\ & = {\text{ Rs}}{\text{. }}\frac{{117x}}{{100}} \\ & \therefore \frac{{117x}}{{100}} + \frac{{9x}}{{10}} + x = 6447 \\ & \Rightarrow \frac{{117x + 90x + 100x}}{{100}} = 6447 \\ & \Rightarrow 307x = 644700 \\ & \Rightarrow x = \frac{{644700}}{{307}} \\ & \Rightarrow x = 2100 \\ & {\text{Hence, Aman's expenses :}} \\ & = {\text{Rs}}{\text{. }}\left( {\frac{{117 \times 2100}}{{100}}} \right) \\ & = {\text{Rs}}{\text{. 2457}} \\\end{aligned}
