Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is option 1 i.e. 9 : 8.

Avinash's monthly salary = ₹50,000

Avinash's monthly expenditure = ₹18,000

Savings = Salary - Expenditure

Avinash’s savings = 50,000 − 18,000 = 32,000

Radha's monthly salary = ₹60,000

Radha's monthly expenditure = ₹24,000

Radha’s savings = 60,000 − 24,000 = 36,000

Ratio = Radha’s savings​/Avinash’s savings = 36,000​/32,000 = 9/8
