Question 83

Two labourers A and B are paid a total of Rs. 1120 per day. If A is paid 180 percent of what is paid to B, how much (in Rs) is B paid?

Solution

Let amount paid to B = Rs. $$100x$$

=> Amount paid to A = $$\frac{180}{100} \times 100x=Rs.$$ $$180x$$

Total amount = $$180x+100x=1120$$

=> $$x=\frac{1120}{280}=4$$

$$\therefore$$ Amount paid to B = $$100 \times 4=Rs.$$ $$400$$

=> Ans - (A)
