Part (i)

To determine how much money Mr Limbu spends in a month, we need to calculate 4/7ths of his total earnings.

To do this, multiply his total earnings Rs 28,000 by 4/7:

$\textsf{Money spent}=28000 \cdot \dfrac{4}{7}\\\\\\\textsf{Money spent}=\dfrac{28000\cdot 4}{7}\\\\\\\textsf{Money spent}=\dfrac{112000}{7}\\\\\\\textsf{Money spent}=16000$

Therefore, Mr Limbu spends Rs 16,000 in a month.

Part (ii)

To determine how much money Mr Limbu saves in the bank in a month, simply subtract the amount he spends from the amount he earns:

$\textsf{Savings per month}= 28000-16000\\\\\\\textsf{Savings per month}= 12000$

Therefore, Mr Limbu saves Rs 12,000 in the bank in a month.
