Step-by-step explanation:
Number of skilled worker: unskilled worker: clerks = 8:5:1 and the ratio of their respective Wages = 5:2:3
Hence the amount will be paid in the ratio 8 × 5 : 5 × 2 : 3 × 1 = 40 : 10:3
Hence total amount distributed among unskilled workers
318 x 10 / (40+10 +3) = Rs 60.
But the number of unskilled workers is 20, so the daily wages of unskilled worker
60/20 = rs.30
The wages of a skilled worker, an unskilled worker and a clerk are in the ratio = 5:2:3
Multiplying the ratio by (5/2) and (3/2)we get = 7.50 : 3 : 4.50
So, if an unskilled worker gets Rs.3 a day then a skilled worker gets Rs. 7.50 per day a clerks Rs. 4.50 a day
