Average salary of 12 workers is ₹15000. If the manager is included, the average becomes ₹16000. What is the manager's salary?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

Total salary of 12 employees = 12 × 15,000= ₹1,80,000

Total salary of 13 individuals (including the manager) = 13 × 16,000= ₹2,08,000

Manager's salary = 2,08,000 − 1,80,000= ₹28,000
