If the wages of 6 men for 15 days be Rs. 4200, then find the wages of 9 men for 12 days.
Explanation:
Let the required wages be Rs. x.
More men, More wages ⇒ wages ∝ men (Direct Proportion)
Less days, Less wages ⇒ wages ∝ days (Direct Proportion)
⇒ wages ∝ men × days
⇒ wagesmen×days = constant
⇒ 42006×15=x9×12
⇒ x = 5040
∴ the required wages are Rs. 5040.
Hence, 5040.
