    D Rs.14500 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    ATQ, Let the average salary of the employee in 34 years be ‘x’ So according to the question: 34x + 58000 = 35 × (x + 2000) 34x + 58000 = 35x + 70000 x = 58000 - 70000 x = 12000 So, the average salary of the employee after 35 years = 12000 + 2000 = Rs.14000
