Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The correct answer is Option 1 i.e. Rs. 25,000.
Let incomes: Anand = 3x, Bharath = 5x
Let expenses: Anand = y, Bharath = 3y
3x - y = 10000 .....(1)
5x - 3y = 10000 .....(2)
From (1) and (2), we get x = 5000
Bharath's income = 5x = 5 × 5000 = 25000
