Question

Two employees Anita and Sarita are paid a total sum of 6,600 per month. If Anita is paid 120% of the sum paid to Sarita, then what amount will Sarita get?

A.

Rs.4,500

B.

Rs.3,000

C.

Rs.30,000

D.

Rs.5,000

Correct option is B

Given:

Total payment for both employees = Rs. 6,600

Anita is paid 120% of the amount paid to Sarita.

Solution:

Let the amount paid to Sarita be represented by x.

Then, according to the problem, Anita's salary is 120% of Sarita's salary, which can be represented as 1.2 \times x.

The total salary equation can be written as:

x + 1.2x = 6600

Combine like terms to solve for x:

2.2x = 6600

x = 3000

Therefore, the amount Sarita will get is Rs. 3000.
