Two employees A and B are paid a total of Rs. 560 per week by their employer. If A is paid 150 percent of the sum paid to B, how much is B paid per week?
Choose the correct choice:
A) s.130	B) s.140	C) s.150	D) s.224	E) s.280
Let the amount paid to A per week = x   and the amount paid to B per week = y   Then x + y = 560   But x = 150% of y = 150y/100 = 15y/10   ∴15y/10 + y = 560   ⇒ y[15/10 + 1] = 560   ⇒ 25y/10 = 560   ⇒ 25y = 5600   ⇒ y = 5600/25 =Rs.224   s.224)
