The total monthly salary of 4 men and 2 women is Rs. 46,000. If a woman earns Rs. 500 more than a man, what is the monthly salary of a woman ?


A) Rs. 6500

B) Rs. 7500

C) Rs. 8000

D) Rs. 9000

Answer:

Option C

Explanation:

Let Woman = W and Men = M
Total salary = 4M + 2W
4M + 2W = 46000
Woman's salary = (M + 500)
4M + 2(M + 500) = 46000
6M + 1000 = 46000
M = 7500
Therefore Women's salary = 7500 + 500 = 8000
