Answer 1

$❤️ Given❤️$

• ratio of salary of skilled and unskilled worker is 5: 3.

• total salary of one day of two of them is 720.

$❤️ To Find ❤️$

• daily wages of skilled and unskilled worker.

$❤️ Solution❤️$

consider the salary of skilled person as X and consider salary of a unskilled person be y.

• total salary of one day of two of them is 720 [given]

Therefore X + Y = 720 (1)

And also X\Y = 5\3

3 X = 5 Y

Therefore 3 X - 5 Y = 0 (2)

By multiplying equation (1) By The 3 we

get 3 X + 3 Y = 2160. (3)

Substract equation (3) from (2)

we get 8 Y = 2160

Y = 270 .

Put the value of Y = 270 in Equation (1)

We get 270 + X = 720.

Therefore X= 450 .

Therefore

daily wages of skilled workers

= 450 RS

daily wages of unskilled worker

= 270 RS .
