Question 1026691: A lady is paid 75k each day she works. She is fined 25k for each day she fails to work. After 30 days she is paid 850k. How many days has she worked?
You can put this solution on YOUR website! .
W=days worked; 30-W=days she did not work
.
75kW-25k(30-W)=850k
75kW-750k+25kW=850k
100kW-750k=850k
100kW=1600k
W=16
.
ANSWER: She worked 16 days
.
CHECK:
.
Days worked=16
Days failed to work=30-16=14
.
75k(W)-25k(30-W)=850k
75k(16)-25k(14)=850k
1200k-350k=850k
850k=850k
.
