Megoldás. Ha Anna jövedelme havonta \(\displaystyle A\), akkor Anna havi megtakarítása \(\displaystyle 0,4A\), havi kiadása \(\displaystyle 0,6A\). Betti havi jövedelme \(\displaystyle \frac85A\), havi kiadása \(\displaystyle 1,2A=\frac65 A\), ez havi jövedelmének \(\displaystyle \frac65:\frac85=\frac34\) része. Tehát Betti havi megtakarítása havi jövedelmének 25%-a.
