- The family spent Rs10,000 per month for the first three months, totaling Rs30,000.

- For the next four months, the expenditure was Rs12,500 per month, totaling Rs50,000.

- In the last five months, they spent Rs13,500 monthly, totaling Rs67,500.

- The total expenditure for the year is Rs30,000 + Rs50,000 + Rs67,500 = Rs147,500.

- Total yearly income can be calculated by adding savings to the total expenditure: Rs147,500 + Rs32,500 = Rs180,000.

- The average monthly income = Rs180,000 / 12 = Rs15,000.

- 70% of the average monthly income = 0.70 * Rs15,000 = Rs10,500.

- Option 4: Rs10,500 is the correct answer.
