  • Question
  • The average salary per head of all the workers in a workshop is Rs. 850, if the average salary per head of 7 technician is Rs. 1000 and the average salary per head of the rest is Rs 780, the total number of workers in the work- shop is?


  • Options
  • A. 18
  • B. 20
  • C. 22
  • D. 24

  • Correct Answer
  • 22 

    Explanation

    Let the total number of workers be y.
    So sum of salary for all workers = sum of salary of 7 technician + sum of salary for other y -7 workers.
    7 x 1000 + 780(y -7) = 850 y
    ? 7000 + 780y - 5460 = 850y
    ? 70y = 1540
    ? y = 22

    So total number of workers = 22
