A) s.250	B) s.280	C) s.290	D) s.299	E) s.300
Let the amount paid to X per week = x   and the amount paid to Y per week = y   Then x + y = 616   s.280ut x = 120% of y = 120y/100 = 12y/10   ∴12y/10 + y = 616   ⇒ y[12/10 + 1] = 616   ⇒ 22y/10 = 616   ⇒ 22y = 6160   ⇒ y = 6160/22 = 560/2 = Rs.280   s.280
