where the hell are 8 men huh??

Question:

A certain factory employed 600 men and 400 women and the average wages was Rs.25.50 per day. If a woman got Rs.5 less than a man, then what are the daily wages 8 of men and women respectively.

Options:
A)

25.50, 27.50

B)

27.50, 22.50

C)

26.50, 27.50

D)

24.50, 26.50

Solution:

Ans: (b)

Let x is the wages of a mam

Then, (x – 5) is the wages of a woman  

ATQ,

(600 + 400) × 25.50 = 600x + 400 (x – 5)  

25500 = 1000x – 2000 

1000x = 27500

x = 27.50

Man got Rs.27.50 and woman got 22.50
