The average monthly salary of employees, consisting of officers and workers, of an organisation is Rs. 3000. The average salary of an officer is Rs. 10,000 while that of a worker is Rs. 2000 per month. If there are total 400 employees in the organisation, find the number of officers and workers separately.

Correct Answer: 50 , 350

Explanation:

As per figure we can calculate the ration as below
Number of officers / Number of workers = 1000 / 7000 = 1 / 7
No. of officers = 1 / (1 + 7) × 400 = 50
No. of workers = 400 – 50 = 350
