SSC CHSL 2024 PYQ — Question 53

The correct answer is option 4 i.e. Rs.16,200.

Given:

Fifteen persons working 12 hours a day earn Rs. 18,000 per week.

Formula used: 

$\frac{M1 × H1 × D1 }{W1}$  = $\frac{M2 × H2 × D2}{W2}$

Explanation:

According to the given question,

M1 = 15, H1 = 12, D1 = D2 = 7, W1 = 18000

M2 = 18, H2 = 9

Substituting in the formula,

⇒ $\frac{15 × 12 × 7 }{18000}$ = $\frac{18 × 9 × 7}{W2}$

⇒ W2 = $\frac{20412000}{1260}$ 

⇒ W2 = 16200

Hence, 18 persons working 9 hours a day earn Rs 16200 per week.
