Question

An old man gets retirement pension of Rs 2470. 50 for 6 months. how much will he get for 2 months?​

Answer 1

Answer:

The pension he gets in 2 months = 823.50 rupees

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the pension he gets in 2 months be x.

Given,

• Pension (P₁) = 2470.50 rupees
• Time (T₁) = 6 months
• Pension (P₂) = x rupees
• Time (T₂) = 2 months

P₂ can be obtained from the relation :

P₁T₂ = P₂T₁

∴ P₂ = $\frac{P_1T_2}{T_1}$

⇒ P₂ = (2470.50 × 2) / 6

⇒ P₂ = 4941/6

⇒ P₂ = 823.50 rupees
