In a company, the average salary of 5 engineers is Rs. 60,000. If one engineer leaves and the average salary becomes Rs. 58,000, what was the salary of the engineer who left?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct answer is option 2 i.e. Rs. 68,000
Total salary of 5 engineers = 60000 × 5 = 300000
After one leaves, the total salary of 4 engineers = 58000 × 4 = 232000
Salary of engineer who left = 300000 – 232000 = 68000
