The income of a man is increased in the ratio 7:8. If the increase in his income is Rs 4500 per month, find his new income?

1 answer

Let the man's original income be 7x and his new income be 8x.

According to the given information, the increase in his income is 8x - 7x = Rs 4500.

Therefore, x = Rs 4500.

His new income = 8x = 8 * 4500 = Rs 36000.

Hence, his new income is Rs 36000.
