    Mr. Johnson was to earn Rs. 300 and a free holiday for seven weeks work. He worked for only 4 weeks and earned Rs. 30 and a free holiday. What was the value of the holiday?

    A)  Rs. 300            

    B)  Rs. 330    

    C)  Rs. 360            

    D)  Rs. 420

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    Let the value of the holiday be x. Then pay for seven weeks' works \[=300+x\] So, \[\frac{Rs.300+x}{7}\times 4=Rs.30+x\] \[\Leftrightarrow \]\[Rs.1200+4x=Rs.210+7x\] \[\Leftrightarrow 3x=Rs.990\] \[\Leftrightarrow \] \[x=Rs.330.\]
