    B.

    Rs. 1720

    C.

    Rs. 1620

    D.

    Rs. 1560

    Correct option is C

    Given :

    Income of Avin = ₹54,000
    Avin’s income is 20% less than Bharat’s income.

    Formula Used :

    Expenditure = Income − Savings

    Solution :

    Bharat’s income

    54,000 = 80% of Bharat’s income

    Bharat’s income=54,000×10080=67,5\text{Bharat’s income} = \frac{54,000 \times 100}{80} = 67,5​00
    Bharat’s expenditure

    Bharat’s expenditure is 12% more than Avin’s income.
    = 112% of 54,000
    = 1.12 ×54,\times 54,​000 = 60,480
    Avin’s expenditure

    Avin’s expenditure is 25% less than Bharat’s expenditure.
    = 75% of 60,480
    = 0.75×60,5 \times 60,​480 = 45,360

    Avin’s savings
    = 54,000 - 45,360 = 8,640

    Bharat’s savings
    = 67,500 - 60,480 = 7,020
    Difference between savings

    = 8,640 - 7,020 = 1,620
