The correct Answer is:
To find the one day's earning of a woman based on the information given in the question, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the Information Given**: We know that 8 men or 6 women earn Rs. 960 in one day. This means that the total earning of either 8 men or 6 women is the same, which is Rs. 960. 2. **Identify the Earning of Women**: We need to find out how much one woman earns in one day. According to the problem, the total earning for 6 women is Rs. 960. 3. **Calculate the Earning of One Woman**: To find the earning of one woman, we can use the unitary method. We will divide the total earning of 6 women by the number of women: \[ \text{Earning of one woman} = \frac{\text{Total earning of 6 women}}{\text{Number of women}} = \frac{960}{6} \] 4. **Perform the Division**: Now, we will perform the division: \[ 960 \div 6 = 160 \] Therefore, the earning of one woman in one day is Rs. 160. ### Final Answer: The one day's earning of a woman is Rs. 160. ---
