Question
Radha got ₹ 17,480 as her monthly salary and over-time. Her salary exceeds the over-time by ₹ 10,000. What is her monthly salary?
Solution
Let Radha’s monthly salary = ₹ x
So, money got by her in over-time = ₹ (17480 – x)
According to the question,
x = 17480 – x + 10000
⇒ x + x = 17480 + 10000
⇒ 2x = 27480
⇒ x = `27480/2` = 13740
Thus, 13740 is her monthly salary.
