If the wages of 6 men for 15 days be Rs.2100, then find the wages of
for
12 days.
Answer:
Let the required wages be Rs. x.
More
men, More wages (Direct Proportion)
Less
days, Less wages (Direct Proportion)
Men
6: 9 : :2100:x
Days
15:12
Therefore
(6 x 15 x x)=(9 x 12 x 2100) x=(9 x 12 x 2100)/(6 x 15)=2520
Hence
the required wages are Rs. 2520.
