Solution

Mean salary of 20 employees = Rs 7650
∴ Sum of the salaries of 20 employees = 20×7650 = Rs 153000
It is given that if the salary of the manger is included, then the mean is increased by Rs 550.
∴ New mean = 7650 + 550 = Rs 8200
Now,
Sum of the salaries of 21 employees = 21×8200 = Rs 172200
And,
Salary of the manager = 172200-153000=Rs 19200
