  • Question
  • Ravi earns twice as much in January as in each of the other months. What part of his annual earnings he earns in that month?


  • Options
  • A. 2/13
  • B. 1/10
  • C. 5/7
  • D. 1/5

  • Correct Answer
  • 2/13 

    Explanation

    Suppose Ravi earns Rs. N in each of the 11 months.
    Then earning in January = Rs. 2 x N.
    ? Total annual income = (11 x N + 2 x N) = Rs. 13 x N
    Part of total earning in January = (2 x N) / (13 x N) = 2/13
