(A) Let the initial expense be $5x$ and initial savings be $3x$.Initial income = Expense + Savings = $5x + 3x = 8x$.New expense = $5x + 60\% 	ext{ of } 5x = 5x + 3x = 8x$.New income = $8x + 25\% 	ext{ of } 8x = 8x + 2x = 10x$.New savings = New income - New expense = $10x - 8x = 2x$.Decrease in savings = Initial savings - New savings = $3x - 2x = x$.Given that the decrease is $Rs. 3500$,so $x = 3500$.The increased income is $10x = 10 	imes 3500 = Rs. 35000$.

In a family,the ratio of expenses to savings is $5:3$. If the expenses increase by $60\%$ and the income increases by $25\%$,the savings decrease by $Rs. 3500$. Find the increased income (in $Rs.$) of the family.
