Find the difference between the expenditure on education and food by Manoj and by Ritesh in the same categories.
» Explain it
C
Expenditure by Manoj,
 
On food = 33% of 148000 = Rs. 48840
 
On education = 22% of 148000 = Rs. 32560
 
Total, M = Rs. (48840 + 32560) = Rs. 81400
 
Expenditure by Ritesh,
 
On food = 40% of 196000 = Rs. 78400
 
On education = 18% of 196000 = Rs. 35280
 
Total, R = Rs. (78400 + 35280) = Rs. 113680
 
Therefore, difference in expenditure = R – M = Rs. (113680 – 81400) = Rs. 32280
 
Hence, option C is correct.
