Given : Labour charges for digging the first meter of the well = Rs. 150
And charges for digging each subsequent meter = Rs. 50 
The well was dug up to a depth of 10 meter.
Therefore,
The actual amount to be paid to the labour will be = Cost of the first meter + 9*cost of subsequent meter
∴ Rs. 150 + Rs.(9*50)
= 150 + 450
= Rs. 600
The actual amount to be paid to the labour is Rs. 600

cost(first metre)=₹150
subsequent charge=₹50 per metre
