can someone explain how you end up getting k = 2.5, this would require MPS to be 0.4. i know k = 1 / mps n how it works, i can normally do these but can work out how to get it from the table. its a big table so i cant copy it on here. cheers

mps = change in savings/ change in income

change in savings was 40
change in income was 100
mps = 0.4
k = 1/mps
= 2.5
