Question

a's salery is the same as 4 times b's salery if together they earn 3750 a month find the salery of both

Answer 1

Let the salary of b is Rs x ,


So, salary of a will be 4 times of Rs x = Rs 4 x,



So,
b's salary = Rs x
a's salary = Rs 4x




Given that together they earn = Rs 3750


= > Salary of b + Salary of a = Rs 3570


= > Rs x + Rs 4x = Rs 3570


= > Rs 5x = Rs 3570


= > Rs x × 5 = Rs 750 × 5


= > Rs x = Rs 750



Hence,
Monthly salary of b = Rs x = Rs 750


Monthly salary of a = Rs 4x = Rs 4( 750 ) = Rs 3000

Answer 2

let the salary of b = x
the salary of a = 4x
A.T.Q
x+4x = 3750
5x=3750
x=3750/5
x=750
the salary of b =x=750
the salary of a =4x=4 × 750=3000
