Question

    Six men collectively earn Rs. 720 as wages over a period of 15 days. If a woman earns Rs. 2 more than a man per day, calculate the total earnings of eight women over 10 days.

    A Rs. 800 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Rs. 900 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Rs. 1800 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Rs. 1200 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Daily wage of a man = 720 ÷ (15 x 6) = Rs. 8 So, daily wage of a woman = 8 + 2 = Rs. 10 So, required earnings = 10 x 8 x 10 = Rs. 800 Hence, option a.
