Question:

Pervez, Sunny, and Ashu Bhati alone can complete a piece of work in 30, 50, and 40 days. The ratio of their salaries of each day is 4: 3: 2 respectively. The total income of Parvez is Rs 144. Find the total income of Sunny.

Options:

180

185

190

195

Correct Answer:

180

Explanation:

Time taken by Pervez = 30 days

Each day salary = 4R

Total Salary = 30 × 4R = 120R

According to question:

120R = Rs.144

10R = Rs.12 .....(i)

Now,

Time taken by Sunny = 50 days

Each day salary = 3R

Total Salary = 50 × 3 = 150R

10R = Rs.12       (from (i))

150R = 12 × 15 = Rs.180/-

Therefore, Total income of Sunny = Rs.180/-
