He remained absent for 4 days.
Explanation:
Let, the total number of days he remained absent be, 'n'.
∴ The number of days he remained present = (20-n)
∴ His earning = Rs (20-n)× 120
= Rs (2400 - 120n)
∴ His fine = Rs (10×n)
= Rs (10n)
According to the given problem,
(2400-120n) - (10n) = 1880
⇒ 2400 - 130n = 1880
⇒ -130n = 1880 -2400
⇒ -130n = -520
⇒ 130n = 520
⇒ n = 520/130
⇒ n = 4
∴ He remained absent for 4 days.
