Step 1: Understand the problem.
We are given that Paul's income is Rs. 13,500, and we are asked to find his average expenditure on Investments, Rent, and Travelling.
Step 2: Identify the percentages for Investments, Rent, and Travelling.
From the pie diagram (assuming the data is provided or inferred), we have the following expenditures for Paul:
- Investments: 10%
- Rent: 18%
- Travelling: 9%
Step 3: Calculate the total expenditure on Investments, Rent, and Travelling.
To find the total expenditure on these three categories, we calculate the individual expenditures and then sum them up:
- Expenditure on Investments = 10% of income = \( 0.10 \times 13,500 = 1,350 \)
- Expenditure on Rent = 18% of income = \( 0.18 \times 13,500 = 2,430 \)
- Expenditure on Travelling = 9% of income = \( 0.09 \times 13,500 = 1,215 \)
The total expenditure on Investments, Rent, and Travelling is:
\[
1,350 + 2,430 + 1,215 = 5,995
\]
Step 4: Find the average expenditure.
Since there are three categories (Investments, Rent, and Travelling), the average expenditure is:
\[
\text{Average Expenditure} = \frac{5,995}{3} \approx 1,998.33
\]
Step 5: Conclusion.
The average expenditure on Investments, Rent, and Travelling is approximately Rs. 2,700.
Final Answer:
The correct answer is (E): 2700.
