Two tailors X and Y are paid a total of Rs. 550 per week by their employer. If X is paid 120 percent of the sum paid to Y, how much is Y paid per week?
A.Rs. 200
B.Rs. 250
FeedbackLet the sum paid to Y per week be Rs. z. Then, z + 120% of z = 550. z + (120/100)z = 550. (11/5)z= 550 z=( (550 X 5)/11 ) = 250.
