Question

One year payment to the servant is Rs. 200 plus one shirt. The servant leaves after 9 months and receives Rs.120 and a shirt. Then find the price of the shirt.

Options:

A . Rs. 80

B . Rs. 100

C . Rs. 120

D . Cannot be determined

Answer: Option C
:
C
Solution:At the first glance it seems that the answer is cannot be determined but let’s investigate further. Let the price of the shirt be 12X, where every month he earns

{\frac{1}{12}}^{t h}

of the shirt price plus his wages.He earns

\frac{200}{12}

every month as salary .. So in 9 months he should've earned 150 cash. But he only got 120 hence Rs.30 went to his shirt deduction.Therefore 3X= 30

&

12X= 120. Option (c).
