Answer» Correct Answer - Option 2 : 45 Given: The average salary of all employees in a company = Rs. 5,000 per employee. The average salary of all 15 employees of technical staff = Rs. 6,500 per employee The average salary of Non-technical staff = Rs. 4,500 per employee. Concepts used: Average salary = (Sum of salaries of all employees)/(Number of employees) Calculation: Let the total number of employees in the company be x. Sum of salaries of all employees = Rs. 5,000 × x = Rs. 5,000x According to questions Sum of salaries of technical staff = Rs. 6,500 × 15 = Rs. 97,500 Number of non-technical staff = x – 15 So, Sum of salaries of non-technical staff = 4,500 × (x – 15) = 4,500x – 67,500 Sum of salaries of all employees = Sum of salaries of technical staff + Sum of salaries of non-technical staff ⇒ 5,000x = 97,500 + (4,500x – 67,500) ⇒ 5,000x – 4,500x = 97,500 – 67,500 ⇒ 500x = 30,000 ⇒ x = 60 Number of non-technical employees = 60 – 15 = 45 ∴ There are 45 non-technical employees in the company. |
