Question

John works as a part time waiter in a restaurant. He gets a monthly salary of ₹4,410.Calculate John’s daily, weekly and annual salary.(Take 1 month= 30 days)

Answers

  1. 1 month is aprox. 30 days, so
    To find john’s daily salary:
    For a month, the salary is 4,410 rupees, so for a day how much?
    days     salary
    30          4,410    (This is how I learnt to solve these kind of problems)
    1               ?
    Then you crisscross the equation which becomes
    4,410/30=147 rupees
    To find weekly salary:
    we now know the salary for one day so we can say: For a day, the salary is 147 rupees, so for 7 days (1 week) how much?
    You multiply the salary for one day and the number of days: 147×7=1,029 rupees
    To find salary for a year (annual):
    we now know the salary for one day so we can say:  For a day, the salary is 147 rupees, so for 365 days (1 year) how much?
    You multiply the salary for one day and the number of days: 147×365=53,655 rupees
    Hope it helps!
