Answer 1

multiply all the fractions with 20 and add them...

1*20 + 1/3*20+1/8*20+2/3*20+3/4*20= 2*20+15+2.5= 40+15+2.5= 57 rupees and 50 paise

Answer 2

Answer:57.50 rupees.

Step-by-step explanation:

a worker's one day salary = 20 rs.

his total work in a week =

$1+\frac{1}{3}+\frac{2}{3}+\frac{1}{8}+\frac{3}{4}\\\\=\frac{23}{8}$

so his total salary = (23/8)*20

                                = 57.5 rs.

so worker get total amount in a week = 57.50 rupees.
