​

Answer 1

Gɪᴠᴇɴ :-

• The ratio of salary of skilled and unskilled workers is 5 : 3.
• Total salary of one day of both of them is 720.

Tᴏ Fɪɴᴅ :-

• Find daily wages of skilled and unskilled workers. ?

Sᴏʟᴜᴛɪᴏɴ :-

Let us Assume That, salary of skilled and unskilled workers is 5x and 3x.

So,

→ Total one day salary of both = 720

→ 5x + 3x = 720

→ 8x = 720

Dividing by 8 Both sides ,

→ x = 90

Hence,

→ Daily wages of Skilled workers = 5x = 5*90 = Rs.450

→ Daily wages of Un-Skilled workers = 3x = 3*90 = Rs.270.

Therefore , per day salary of skilled & Un-skilled workers is Rs.450 & Rs.270 Respectively.

Answer 2

Answer:

The daily wages of skilled workers is 450 rupees and for unskilled workers is 270 rupees .

Solution :

According to the question,

Let the salary of skilled workers be 5x and the salary of unskilled workers be 3x.

Then,

Total wage of (skilled +unskilled) workers = 720 /-

Total wage of (5x+3x) workers =720 /-

→ 8x = 720

→ x = 720/8

→ x = 90

Therefore,

Wages of skilled workers = 5x

= 5× 90

= 450 /-

Wages of unskilled workers = 3x

= 3×90

= 270 /-
