    A labourer is paid Rs. 806 for 13 days of work. If he receives Rs. 1,798, for how many days did he work?

    A)  29                              

    B)  35

    C)  60                  

    D)         40      

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    Let number of days be y.
    Rupees 806 1798
    Days 13 Y
    More the money, more will be the number days. So it is direct proportion. Hence, \[\frac{806}{13}=\frac{1798}{y}\Rightarrow y=\frac{1798\times 13}{806}=29\]
