Q:

In a regular week, there are 5 working days and for each day, the working hours are 8. A man gets Rs. 2.40 per hour for regular work and Rs. 3.20 per hours for overtime. If he earns Rs. 432 in 4 weeks, then how many hours does he work for ?

A) 145 B) 165
C) 175 D) 135
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 175

Explanation:

Given that,

 working days = 5

 working hours = 8

 A man get rupess per hour is Rs.2.40

 So in one day the man get total rupees is 2.40 x 8 = 19.2

 So in 5 days week the man get total rupees is 19.2 x 5 = 96

 So in 4 week the man get total rupees is 96 x 4 = 384

 So the man worked for = 160hours in 4 weeks

 

 But given that the man earned Rs.432

 

 Hence remaning money is (432-384 = 48)which is earn by doing overtime work

 


Overtime hours  = 48/3.20 = 15


So total worked hours is = 15 + 160 = 175.
