The monthly average salary for 12 workers plus one manager is ₹18,000. If the manager earns ₹30,000 per month, what is the average monthly salary of the 12 workers?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3 i.e. ₹17,000.

Total salary for 13 people = 13 × 18000 = 234000

Manager’s salary = 30000

Total salary of 12 workers = 234000 - 30000 = 204000

Average salary of 12 workers = 204000/12 = 17000
