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 from the following answers
A) s . 130
B) s . 140
C) s . 150
D) s . 224
E) s . 280

Rationale: "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 = 150 y / 100 = 15 y / 10 ∴ 15 y / 10 + y = 560 ⇒ y [ 15 / 10 + 1 ] = 560 ⇒ 25 y / 10 = 560 ⇒ 25 y = 5600 ⇒ y = 5600 / 25 = rs . 224 d )"
Answer: D
