The average monthly expenditure of a family was ₹8,060 during the first three months, ₹9,750 during the next four months and ₹9,920 during the last five months of a year. If the total savings during the year was ₹65,300, the average monthly income (in ₹) of the family was:

The correct answer is

14,975

The total expenditure during the year is ₹8,060 × 3 + ₹9,750 × 4 + ₹9,920 × 5 = ₹24,180 + ₹39,000 + ₹49,600 = ₹112,780. The total savings is ₹65,300. Therefore, the total income is ₹112,780 + ₹65,300 = ₹178,080. The average monthly income = ₹178,080 ÷ 12 = ₹14,975.
