Mr. Power attends to, on the average, 12 TV service calls per day. Mr. Fixit attends to, on the average, 16 service calls per day. Mr. Power's average is 3/2 as much as that Mr. Fixit, who earns Tk. 7200 per month. The monthly dibi earnings of Mr. Power, in Taka, is:
Answer: C) 8100
- A) 3600
- B) 7200
- C) 8100
- D) None
Explanation
C) 8100. Read the 3/2 as Mr. Power earning 3/2 as much per call as Mr. Fixit. Fixit earns Tk 7200 a month from 16 calls a day, so each daily call is worth 7200 ÷ 16 = 450. Power's call is worth 450 × 3/2 = 675, and his 12 calls give 12 × 675 = 8100.
