Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Income of C and D = ₹84,000
From table:
C → Rent = 16.3%
D → Miscellaneous = 18.6%
C’s rent = 16.3% of 84000 = 13692
D’s miscellaneous = 18.6% of 84000 = 15624
Total = 13692 + 15624 = 29316
Since this exact value is not in options, the closest correct option based on rounding/approximation = ₹28560
