Two employees A and B are paid a total of Rs. 570 per week by their employer. If A is paid 150 percent of the sum paid to B, how much is B paid per week?  Select the correct option: A) s.130 B) s.140 C) s.150 D) s.228 E) s.282
Let the amount paid to A per week = x   and the amount paid to B per week = y   Then x + y = 570   But x = 150% of y = 150y/100 = 15y/10   ∴15y/10 + y = 570   ⇒ y[15/10 + 1] = 570   ⇒ 25y/10 = 570   ⇒ 25y = 5700   ⇒ y = 5700/25 = Rs.228   s.228)
