Question:

The average salary of 12 employees in a company was recorded to be ₹20,000. If the salary of the manager is also included, then the average salary increases by ₹2,000. Find the salary of the manager.

Options:

₹36,000

₹46,000

₹28,000

₹42,000

Correct Answer:

₹46,000

Explanation:

Sum of salaries of 12 employees = 12 × 20000 = 2,40,000

Sum of salaries of 12 employee and Manager = 13 × 22000 = 2,86,000

Salary of Manager = 2,86,000 - 2,40,000 = Rs.46000
