Question

Tim works for 10 days and earns ₹200. Kim works for 7 days and earns ₹175. Who earns less for a day?

• A. Tim
• B. Kim
• C. John
• D. None of them

Answer 1

The correct option is A

Tim

Amount of money Tim earns = ₹200
Number of days Tim works = 10
$\therefore$ Tim's earning per day $=\frac{20\text{/}0}{1\text{/}0}=₹20$

Amount of money Kim earns = ₹175
Number of days Kim works = 7
$\therefore$ Kim's earning per day $=\frac{175}{7}=₹25$

$\therefore$ Tim's earning is less than Kim's earning for a day.
