A woker is paid Rs 200 for 8 days work. If he works for 20 days, how much will he get?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Let Rs.`x` be the income for `20` days of work.
Since, the income and the number of working days are in direct variation, we have :
`⇒200/x​= 8/20`
`⇒200×20=8x`
`⇒ x= 500`
∴ The worker will get Rs.`500` for working `20` days.
