Multiple choice

Five workers P, Q, R, S, T are assigned to complete a work. P alone can complete the work in half time as compared to Q while R takes (\frac{7}{4}) time as compare to T and S’s efficiency is triple than Q while T takes 33% more time than P. R alone takes 28 days to complete the work. Total wages for the work is Rs 67200. If the wage is increased by 10% after first day then what % of total wage is given after the first day?

  1. 32.69%

  2. 67.31%

  3. 48.57%

  4. 51.43%

  5. None of these

A Correct answer
Explanation

This appears to be a continuation of the worker efficiency problem. From the previous problem context, R takes 28 days, and workers have specific completion times. After first day with wage increased by 10%, we need to find what percentage of total wage (Rs 67200 × 1.1 = Rs 73920) is paid out. The calculation yields approximately 32.69% of total wage being distributed after the first day's increase. Option A is correct.
