Amount spent on a category = (Angle for that category / 360°) × Total Income
Calculation:
Amount on Savings = (Angle for Savings / 360°) × Monthly Income
Amount on Savings = (36° / 360°) × 50,000
Amount on Savings = (1 / 10) × 50,000
Amount on Savings = ₹ 5,000
Amount on Food = (Angle for Food / 360°) × Monthly Income
Amount on Food = (90° / 360°) × 50,000
Amount on Food = (1 / 4) × 50,000
Amount on Food = ₹ 12,500
The ratio of the amount of 'Savings' to the amount spent on 'Food':
Ratio = 5,000 : 12,500
Ratio = 10 : 25
Ratio = 2 : 5
∴ The correct answer is option 3.
