-
- The total wage earned during the 15 days that the worker worked = 15 * 90 = Rs. 1350.
The total wage earned during the first 7 days = 7 * 87 = Rs. 609.
The total wage earned during the last 7 days = 7 * 92 = Rs. 644.
Total wage earned during the 15 days = wage during first 7 days + wage on 8th day + wage during the last 7 days.
ð 1350 = 609 + wage on 8th day + 644
ð Wage on 8th day = 1350 - 609 - 644 = Rs.97. - 12 years agoHelpfull: Yes(22) No(1)
