Solution

First, let's calculate how much money you need for your emergency fund. If your monthly expenses are Rs. 5000 and you want to save for six months, you need:

5000 Rs/month * 6 months = 30000 Rs

This is the total amount you need for your emergency fund.

Next, let's see how long it will take you to save this amount. If you are saving Rs. 2500 each month, you would divide the total amount needed by the amount you are saving each month:

30000 Rs / 2500 Rs/month = 12 months

So, it will take you 12 months to fully fund your emergency fund. The correct answer is c. 12 Months.
