In an organization, there are a total of 40 employees consisting of 5 Executive officers, 15 Senior Staff and 20 Junior staff. The monthly salaries of an Executive officer, a Senior staff and a Junior staff are Rs. 2,50,000, Rs. 80, 000 and Rs.45,000 respectively. What is the average salary of an employee of the organization?

Correct option is D

To calculate the average salary of an employee in the organization, we need to find the total salary paid to all employees and then divide it by the total number of employees.
Calculating total salary:
 Total salary for Executive officers:
 5×250,000=1,250,000
 5×250,000=1,250,000
 Total salary for Senior staff:
 15×80,000=1,200,000
 15×80,000=1,200,000
 Total salary for Junior staff:
 20×45,000=900,000
 20×45,000=900,000
Total salary paid to all employees:
1,250,000+1,200,000+900,000=3,350,000
1,250,000+1,200,000+900,000=3,350,000
