    Answer : Option E

    Explanation :

     Let the incomes of Chetan and Dinesh be 3x and 4x respectively. Let the expenditures of Chetan and Dinesh be 5y and 7y respectively. Savings is defined as (Income) -  (Expenditure). Hence the savings of Chetan and Dinesh are 3x - 5y and 4x - 7y respectively.

    3x - 5y = 200      --> (1)
