Question

A's salary is same as 4 times B's salary. If together they earn Rs.3,750 a month, find the salary of each.

Answer 1

Let B's salary = Rs. x

$\therefore$A's salary = Rs. 4x

According to the statement :

$x+4x=3750\Rightarrow 5x=3750\Rightarrow x=\frac{3750}{5}\Rightarrow x=750\therefore 4x=750\times 4=3000\therefore A^{\prime }\text{salary}=Rs.3000\therefore B^{\prime }s\text{salary}=Rs.750$
