The average monthly salary of the workers in a workshop is 8500. If the average monthly salary of 7 technicians is Rs 10,000 and the average monthly salary of the rest is Rs 7800, the total number of workers in the workshop is (a) 18 (b) 20 (c) 22 (d) 24 |

Answer» Answer is: (c) 22. Let the total number of workers in the workshop be x. Then, number of other workers (besides technicians) = (x – 7) Given, (x – 7) × 7800 + 7 × 10000 = 8500x ⇒ 7800x – 54600 + 70000 = 8500x ⇒ 700x = 15400 ⇒ x = \(\frac{15400}{700}\) ⇒ x = 22. |
