Original expenses = Ra 1500
Increased expenses = Rs 2250
Increase in expenses = Rs 2250 – Rs 1500 = Rs 750
Now,
(i) Ratio in increase in expenses to original expenses = Rs 750 : Rs 1500 = 1 : 2
(ii) Original expenses to increased expenses = Rs 1500 : Rs 2250
1500/750 = 2250/750 = 2 : 3
(iii) Increased expenses to increased in expenses = Rs 2250 : Rs 750 = 3 : 1 (Dividing by 750)
