Question

a labour is engaged for 20 days
and recieves 60 rupees per day and he will be fined 5 rupees if he's absent he received 745 rupees how much days was he absent

Answer 1

Answer:

7 days

Step-by-step explanation:

Total expected payment : 20 X 60 = 1200 Rs.

For absent days, no salary and 5 Rs. fine assuming

Hence equation is : 1200 + ( -60 X A + -5 X A)  = 745 , where A is number of days absent

=> 1200 - 65 X A = 745

=> 1200 - 745  = 65 X A

=> 455 = 65 X A

=> A = 455 / 65 = 7  days
