Question

a labourer was engaged for 30 days on the condition that will get rupees 60 for each day he work and will be fined rupees 10 for each day he is absent if he gets rupees 1700 at the end of the month for how many days did he remain absent

Answer 1

Hi there!
Here's the answer:

•°•°•°•°•<><><<><>><><>°•°•°•°•°

Labourer was engaged for month

Each day he gets 60₹
If he present for 30 day, he will get 60×30₹ = 1800₹

For each day of his absence,
he will be fined 10₹

Assume that he was absent for x days
Then from the Total Salary 10x is deducted.

•°• Labourer salary per month
= (No. of days he was engaged × His pay for the engaged days) - (No. of Days he was absent × Fine for each day of his absence)

i.e.., S = (30 × 60) - (x × 10)

•°• S = 1800 - 10x

Given,
1700 = 1800 - 10x
=> 10x = 1800-1700
=> 10x = 100
=> x = 10

•°• No. of days the man was absent = 10

He gets 1700 rupees so the equation is

60x - 10(30-x)= 1700
