Answer 1

Answer:

9 days

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the no. of days he remained absent be x

No. of days he is present = (20-x)

Total money received = 280(20-x)-60x=5600-340x

But total money received = 2540

Therefore, 5600-340x=2540

or, 340x=5600-2540

or, 340x=3060

or, x=9

He remained absent for 9 days
