If the earnings of 26 workers for 12 days is RS.18800, find the earnings of 38 workers for 10 days.

The least common multiple of 12 days and 10 days is 60 days

Since the earnings of 26 workers for 12 days is RS.18800,
the earnings of 26 workers for 60 days is RS.94000,

The least common multiple of 26 and 38 is 494, which is 19*26 and 13*38

Since the earnings of 26 workers for 60 days is RS.94000,
the earnings of 494 workers for 60 days is RS.1786000,

So the earnings for 38 workers for 60 days is RS.137384.6154

So the earnings of 38 workers for 10 days is RS.22897.4359
