A) 3500
B) 4000
C) 4050
D) 5000
E) 5050
Let P, Q and R represent their respective monthly incomes. Then, we have:   P + Q = (5050 x 2) = 10100 .... (i)   Q + R = (6250 x 2) = 12500 .... (ii)   P + R = (5200 x 2) = 10400 .... (iii)   Adding (i), (ii) and (iii), we get: 2(P + Q + R) = 33000 or P + Q + R = 16500 .... (iv)   Subtracting (ii) from (iv), we get P = 4000.   P's monthly income = Rs. 4000.   Answer: Option 4000
