Answers
Given : the current wages of Mukesh and Meena are in the ratio 18:16.
The wages of each is increased by Rs 10000,
the new ratio becomes 11: 10
To Find : what is Meena's current wages?
Solution:
current wages of Mukesh and Meena are in the ratio 18:16.
Mukesh current wages = 18x Rs
Meena current wages = 16x Rs
The wages of each is increased by Rs 10000,
Mukesh new wages = 18x + 10000
Meena new wages = 16x + 10000
new ratio becomes 11: 10
=> (18x + 10000)/(16x + 10000) = 11/10
=> 180x + 100000 = 176x + 110000
=> 4x = 10000
=> x = 2500
Meena current wages = 16x = 16(2500)
= 40000 Rs
Meena's current wages = 40000 Rs
