Two employees A and B are paid a total of ₹13,455 per week by their employer. If A is paid 125% of the sum paid to B. how much is B paid per week?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The correct answer is Option 3 i.e. ₹5,980.
Let B's pay = ₹x
Then A's pay = 125% of x = 1.25x
Total = x + 1.25x = 2.25x = ₹13,455
⇒ x = 13455 ÷ 2.25 = ₹5980
