Question

A's salary is same as 4 times of the B's salary .if together they earn 3750 rs ,find the salary of each by equation

Answer 1

Let B's salary be x
Then A's salary will be 4x
Sum of their salary is 3750rs
Therefore x+4x=3750
5x=3750
x=3750/5
x=750
B's salary =750
A's salary= 4x =4 *750= 3000

Answer 2

Let A's salary be x
And B's salary be 4x
A.T.Q
A's salary + B's salary = RS 3750
x + 4x = 3750
5x = 3750
x = 3750/5
x = 750

Hence A's salary is RS 750
AND
B's salary is 750 × 4 = 3000
