Explanation:

Let the income of Akash be Rs 4x and that of Pragati be Rs 3x
Expenditure of Akash = Rs(4x – 2500); Expenditure of Pragati = Rs (3x – 2500);
According to the questions,
(4x-2500)/(3x-2500) = 3/2
⇒ 8x – 5000 = 9x – 7500 ⇒ x = 7500 – 5000 = 2500
Income of Pragati = 3x =3 × 250 = Rs 7500
Expenditure of Pragati = 3x – 2500 = 7500 – 2500 = Rs 5000
