Question

33. A labourer is engaged for 20 days on the condition that he will receive 120 for each day he
works and will be fined * 10 for each day he is absent. If he receives 1880 in all, for how
many days did he remain absent?
​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Amount given for his presence every day = 120

Amount given for his presence of 20 days = 120×20

2400 A

But, he gets 1880. B

Amount fined for his absence each day = 10

So difference between A & B is

2400-1880

520

520/10

52
