Gopi gives Rs. 90 plus one turban as salary to his servant for one year. The servant leaves after 9 months and receives Rs. 40 and the turban. Find the price of the turban.
Answer/Solution
110
Steps/Work
Let the price of turban be x.
Thus, for one year the salary = (90 + x)
For 9 months he should earn 3434 (90 + x).
Now he gets one turban and Rs. 40.
Thus, 3434 (90 + x) = 40 + x or 270 + 3x = 160 + 4x or x = 110
Answer:E
